Oh, then I am afraid you misunderstood.
I would sugest building it from source as indicated here.I will go ahead and do that.Thank you very much for the advice.

Hi
I believe XFCE is already included in debian repository. Have you tried following the instruction described here?
Thank you for your reply
I already have xfce installed.

is not automatically installed along with it and so I would have to separately install it.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xfce-theme-manager
I think the reason it may not be working in my case is that I don't know what the correct equivalent of
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rebuntu16/other-stuff
I really like this wallpaper item
