Package: xfce4

Version: 4.14

In ceres the package xfce4 will not upgrade because it needs 
xfce4-session_4.14, but only xfce4-session_4.12.1-3+devuan1 is 
available.  This has been going on for a long time now.

I could not copy and paste from my virtual machine to here, so I have 
attached a screenshot with the exact message,

Michael,

That is fine. Thanks.

It still works for me -- I specifically tested it before shipping the updates.

Can you tell me

 - Which display manager are you using? Slim? Lightdm?
 - Which session manager? Consolekit or libpam-elogind?
 - What is the output of `dpkg -l|grep polkit'

Thanks.

Mark
