In this (now locked) thread, BugRep kindly provided a script for fixing the error that obstructs installing XFCE 4.10. Unfortunately, the error remains, but the script no longer works for 6.0.1. Could someone provide me with an up-to-date workaround please?

There was a newer thread https://trisquel.info/en/forum/upgrade-xfce
Anyway, you can use this:
#!/bin/sh cd /tmp/ mkdir build-trisquel-desktop-common-data cd build-trisquel-desktop-common-data/ # install build dependencies sudo apt-get build-dep trisquel-desktop-common-data -y # get package source (without sudo) apt-get source trisquel-desktop-common-data # get patch for removing package wget https://trisquel.info/files/issues/ignore-errors.patch cd trisquel-desktop-common-data-6.0/ # apply patch patch debian/postrm ../ignore-errors.patch # remove file rm data/etc/xdg/autostart/xscreensaver.desktop -f # build deb package dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us cd .. # install the package sudo dpkg -i trisquel-desktop-common-data_6.0-*_all.deb cd .. rm -rf build-trisquel-desktop-common-data/

Thank you BugRep! That worked like a charm.
