What I don't understand is exactly what you're doing to get the result? xfce4-desktop doesn't exist. There is xfce4/xfce4-goodies metapackages, and the xfce-desktop task. *what* are you installing, please. > > > Btw are you trying with tasksel, aptitude or apt-get?

Well, when reporting bug please give usable information. Especially since this seems to be a corner case of packages not maintained by us, wether it be gdm or apt/aptitude/tasksel.
