1. Debian packaging of xfce4

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

2. Build Order

xfce4 build order with build-depends:

gtk2-engines-xfce - only gtk

Currently we're building 4.0.6 everywhere and tracking its progress here. Bear with us.

libxfce4util
- libxfcegui4 -- Built everywhere not installed yet.
- libxfce4mcs -- Built everywhere not installed yet.
  - 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.

Need to release 4.0.6

Need to fix:

Hurd bits
- 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. (part done)

Never ending task:

general triage
