4.2 has packages in experimental. We need the 4.2.2 release really so I think we've missed sarge.

Because buildds are broken and don't check build-depends and do dep-wait stuff automagically the plan to get this into unstable is to upload in 5 stages (yes, 5 *sigh*) with the stuff in bold with urgency=high. If you are building this yourself then you'll want to build the bits in bold and install them as you go and then build the bits at each level.

When we upload to the buildds we rely on appropriate dep-waiting.

Simon: Should we consider adopting the xfce4-goodies stuff? Namely bugs 2445{58,59,60,61,62,65,66,67,68,69} It would increase the bug list to: [http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=xfce4,libxfcegui4,libxfce4mcs,libxfce4util,xfce-mcs-manager,xfce-mcs-plugins,xfw4m,xffm4,xfdesktop4,xfce4-panel,xfce4-iconbox,xfce4-utils,xfprint4,xfcalendar,xfce4-mixer,xfce4-themes,xfce4-systray,xfce4-toys,xfce4-trigger-launcher,xfce4-systemload-plugin,xfce4-showdesktop-plugin,xfce4-notes-plugin,xfce4-netload-plugin,xfce4-minicmd-plugin,xfce4-diskperf-plugin,xfce4-datetime-plugin,xfce4-clipman-plugin,xfce4-battery-plugin,xfce4-artwork this]-- DanielSilverstone

Probably yes. I need to look at all the other packages first though really I guess. Might get some time to look at stuff on Sunday. -- SimonHuggins

Did Robster adopt these then? Looks like "Rudy Godoy" may have got there first.

1. Debian packaging of xfce4

This is probably really dull for anyone except SimonHuggins and to an extent DanielSilverstone.

2. Plan for 4.2

4.2 has packages in experimental. We need the 4.2.2 release really so I think we've missed sarge.

3. xfce4-goodies

4. Build Order

xfce4 build order with build-depends:
