create if you dont already have one, /etc/apt/prefrences with these lines:
Package: *
Pin: origin www.os-works.com
Pin-Priority: 999
Remove your debian packages, add the OS-Works sources: (testing if you
use sarge)
#xfce4 from oscillation
deb http://www.os-works.com/debian unstable main
deb-src http://www.os-works.com/debian unstable main
apt-get update
and then install xfce4 again, this time you will get the os-works
version
Other than keeping an eye on the xfce4 mailing list for anything that
might change or affect this setup it has been trouble free for as long
as I have been using it.
