The faster way (because it will avoid upgrading gnome or xfce for nothing,
which includes downloads):
Simply remove all gnome packages, upgrade, and then install XFCE. I think
it is safer to do that from outside an X session, but it should be ok
anyway.
A command like:
#aptitude purge gnome* && aptitude update && aptitude upgrade && aptitude
install xfce4
should do the job, but I think the 2 middle "aptitude" commands can be
replaced by dist-upgrade or something like that. Maybe safer too, I do not
really knows.
