I've juste uploaded, but I'm a bit concerned about the following lintian
warnings:

W: xfce4-session: maintainer-script-should-not-use-update-alternatives-remove 
postrm:4
N: 
N:    update-alternatives --remove <alternative> foo is called in the postrm.
N:    This can be dangerous because at the time the postrm is executed foo has
N:    already been deleted and update-alternatives will ignore it while
N:    constructing its list of available alternatives. Then, if the
N:    /etc/alternatives symlink points at foo, update-alternatives won't
N:    recognize it and will mark the symlink as something site-specific. As
N:    such, the symlink will no longer be updated automatically and will be
N:    left dangling until update-alternatives --auto <alternative> is run by
N:    hand.
N:    
N:    update-alternatives --remove should be called in the prerm instead.
N:    
N:    Refer to Debian Policy Manual appendix F (Alternative versions of an
N:    interface - update-alternatives (from old Packaging Manual)) and the
N:    update-alternatives(8) manual page for details.
N:    
N:    Severity: normal, Certainty: certain
N:    
N:    Check: scripts, Type: binary
