 I finally have got around to installing centos 7 and usually do a
 pretty minimal installation, I chose the virtualization host, since
 that will be the primary purpose.  However I have hit a snag, I
 usually install xfce from epel and go along my way but there appears
 to be a bug in the xfce package:
 
 Error: Package: xfdesktop-4.10.2-2.el7.x86_64 (epel)
Requires: desktop-backgrounds-basic
  You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
  You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
 
 It has been reported and I assume it will be corrected at some point,
 but was wondering if anyone has xfce running on centos 7 or any other
 alternatives to kde/gnome3.
 
 Thanks.
 
The corresponding file from Fedora 19 works.  My guess is that any Fedora 
xfce desktop-backgrounds-basic file would work but I went with the one from 
Fedora 19.

Cheers,
Dave

According to the Bug tracker they updated and fixed the package, it
wasn't working last night but as soon as it synchs to the mirrors it
should work now.

Will test tonight and see what happens.
