There are several packages that you force if you have the earlier 
version of xfce installed, because they called rc3 version 4, when it's 
actually version 3.99.2 (the new one is 3.99.3).

a test would be appreciated. I installed them on my 2.8.1 with the old 
xfce4 debs OK, but on my 2.8.1 beta2 without xfce4 they failed, not 
having all the needed packages/libraries.

Thanks.
