I think you are looking for wrong meta package. Try installing xubuntu-desktop. The only package it removes at my end is totem-gstreamer because I guess XFCE has its own media player. But I think I will file a bug for this. There is no reason for conflicts between media players. Onkar -- Passion - Some people climb mountains - others write Free software.
