Package: xfce
Version: 3.8.18-2
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss

In order to try xfce, I started a second X server and ran xfce_setup and
startxfce on it. After doing this, xfce had hijacked my .xsession and
.xinitrc files, without asking. After some looking around, I found that
they were backed up in some .xfce directory.
This is documented in README.Debian, but not in any manpage (which
doesn't even exist for xfce_setup). This is not really a place where a
normal user will look.

xfce has been removed from the archive (note we recommend you use xfce4)
and either this bug is now irrelevant, there have been no follow ups to
a reasonable request from the maintainer on this bug for a long time or
I've not seen this bug in xfce4 so I'm closing it.

If you want further justification feel free to discuss it with me.

If you can reproduce them in xfce4 please reopen and reassign to xfce4
(or better the component you think is buggy) or start a new bug.

Thanks,

Simon.
