I am running an instance of Flidas on a T60 (32bit). I want to change from Mate to xfce.

So far I have un-installed Mate DE by this command:
sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove mate-desktop

Strange thing no 1: When logging out I still have the option to choose MATE. It takes be to a 'dead' view at the Trisquel wallpaper.

Strange thing no 2: When running Synaptic and trying to mark xfce4 for installation, I get the message, that a bunch of dependencies can not be met and that I should ensure they can.

Only, I don't know how to solve this situation - if it can be solved (i.e. has this something to do with Flidas being alpha?).

Help appreciated.

Remember that trisquel 8 it's in alpha version. I wouldn't say that unmet dependencies with a desktop environment other than mate are strange in this development state.

Thanks. I though that this would/could be resolved via updating and upgrading but I realise that this is probably not correct.
