Package: xfce4
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
I cannot install the package "xfce4" because it depends on several packages
in the unstable repository that has a version number smaller than the
required one (4.3.90). For example, Xfwm4, though there are a few others.

Welcome to unstable.
I'm closing this bug as it is not a bug.
The new meta package does indeed depend on the new packages but we are
waiting for the libraries to come out of NEW.
You can see the progression at:
http://people.debian.org/~igloo/status.php?email=pkg-xfce-devel%40lists.alioth.debian.org
But we're actually waiting on the libs from NEW at:
http://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html
(the 3 pkg-xfce-devel maintained packages on that list).
Until the libs come out of NEW we can't do anything about this.
If you want your dependencies to always be fulfillable please use
testing.
Simon.
