suggested by conrad, not because it's not describing the same problem,
but because i think the solution there is incomplete because it puts the
responsibility on the user and not on the display manager (as outined
above).

Package: xfce4-session
Version: 4.8.3-2+b1
Severity: normal
when an xfce4 session is saved for future logins and that session
doesn't contain a window manager, the user is presented with a
windowmanager-less environment at the next login, from which he might
not be able to recover without deeper
Package: xfce4-settings
Version: 4.8.3-2
Severity: minor
the preferences-desktop-keyboard icon given by xfce4-keyboard-settings
in its desktop file is not provided by its dependencies, resulting in it
having a white square with red cross default icon in the applications
menu if xfce4 is installed
Package: xfce4-volumed
Version: 0.1.13-3
Severity: normal
on some systems (eg a lenovo thinkpad edge), more than one alsa device
with the same name show up. as devices are stored as names in
/xfce4-mixer/active-card, xfce4-volumed can not be configured to use any
of them but the third.
in this
Package: xfce4-volumed
Version: 0.1.13-3
Severity: normal
when installed without gnome-keyring, connecting to unknown protected
wireless networks fails silently. nm-applet's output shows:
Gkr-Message: secret service operation failed: The name
org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any
probable).
i've considered filing this against alsa, but given they always use
numbered ids internally (a la hw:0), i assumed they don't guarantee
that the visible names are always distinct.

Package: xfce4-notifyd
Version: 0.2.4-2
Severity: normal
with the i3wm window manager and no compositing manager active (which is
correctly reported by gtk_widget_is_composited), i get artefacts showing
along the edges (which are supposed to be hidden).
i looked at the code and disabled this
Package: gtk3-engines-xfce
Version: 3.0.1-2
Severity: normal
the Xfce-basic theme, when configured in gtk3 3.14, produces a black
editor window with light gray buttons and white texts -- overall
probably not the intended look and barely usable when it comes to
reading buttons without hovering
. but as
long as this is not enforced, lightdm failing to be started from the
init script under the described conditions is a very harsh way of
educating users.
