Description: Meta-package for the Xfce Lightweight Desktop Environment
Xfce is a lightweight desktop environment for unix-like operating
systems. It aims to be fast and lightweight, while still being visually
appealing and easy to use. Designed for productivity, it loads and
executes applications fast, while conserving system resources.
This package is a meta-package; it depends on the core packages of the
Xfce4 desktop environment and recommends some extra Xfce4 packages. If
you intend to use Xfce4 and want the full experience then installing
this package and the packages it Recommends is a great place to start.
If you just want to pick and choose the core components then feel free
to remove this package.
