I solve these problems by surfing to 

http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages

and doing a search on 'Package Directories.'

If you do that with 'xfce' and set the 'Distribution' box to 'any',
you'll see there is a version now in unstable.

If you're using stable, then I would first try to the unstabe deb, and
if there was no luck with it, I would build from source. It's very
easy to do this with xfce.
