Package: xfce4
Version: 4.4.2.1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
If you install the xfce task, you can't start xfce4 because gdm depends on
gnome-session which pulls in gnome-settings-manager, which block mcs and
therefore xfce4 can't start.

And that's my crabbing done for the day. Got it out of the way early,
now I have the rest of the afternoon to sniff fragrant tea-roses or
strangle cute bunnies or something. -- Michael Devore
