= Debian packaging of xfce4 =

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

= Build Order =

xfce4 build order with build-depends:

 * gtk2-engines-xfce - only gtk

 * '''libxfce4util'''
  * '''libxfcegui4'''
  * '''libxfce4mcs'''
   * '''xfce-mcs-manager'''
    * xfce-mcs-plugins
    * xfce4-iconbox
    * xfce4-utils
    * xfdesktop4
    * xffm4
    * xfprint4
    * xfwm4
    * xfcalendar
    * '''xfce4-panel'''
     * xfce4-mixer
     * xfce4-systray
     * xfce4-themes
     * xfce4-toys
     * xfce4-trigger-launcher

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.

= Bugs =

[http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=xfce4,libxfcegui4,libxfce4mcs,libxfce4util,xfce-mcs-manager,xfce-mcs-plugins,xfwm4,xffm4,xfdesktop4,xfce4-panel,xfce4-iconbox,xfce4-utils,xfprint4,xfcalendar,xfce4-mixer,xfce4-themes,xfce4-systray,xfce4-toys,xfce4-trigger-launcher Bug list on Debian BTS]

Need to fix:

 * Hurd bits
  * well PATH_MAX depends on upstream now and they say they've fixed it.
  * The gtkhtml issue has a patch which looks fine. '''''Fixed in new packages -- ask Kinni to upload'''''
  * The segfaulting occurs on Linux too. Sent upstream for now.
 * The make everything use sensible-browser and other such debianisms in the xfce4rc and the menu bugs.

Never ending task: ;)
  * general triage
