As near as I can tell, exo-preferred-applications has gone away
entirely.
That does seem to be the case.
https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-settings/-/commit/c955a4806f92eb25d341ad71714f558800efa55c#b0e6c4c10d3fff48da0bf054a90caf006a2042b9
The Debian package pages seem to need updating:
https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/exo-utils
https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/xfce4-settings
Agree.
A file search for exo-preferred-applications in bullseye still brings up exo-utils,
but that package's file list has no exo-preferred-applications:
https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=contents&keywords=exo-preferred-applications&mode=path&suite=testing&arch=any
https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/amd64/exo-utils/filelist
exo-open comes as a dependency of Thunar file manager, but without xfce-settings (presumably) it loses some utility, for example 'exo-open --launch TerminalEmulator' just brings up an error box "Could not find fallback TerminalEmulator application".
