rrqLeePen: verified for installer-iso as well (with local xfce4-session=4.18.1-1devuan2)07:09
rrqslim gets installed without fuss07:10
Unit193https://git.devuan.org/devuan/xfce4-session/commit/0e9488b177b95751e18dce0dde55e2ae2c4e0501 Huh, what's the point of this?  Seems like effort for no gain, if the packages don't even exist in the Devuan repo then obviously they won't be pulled in.  Since they're just recommends, no harm in not installing them too.07:19
rrqnot sure many remember how the repositories looked in 2015; I would be more interested in what the point is in commenting on a 2015 commit ;P07:39
Unit193Hah, whoops fair point.  I Just pulled up https://git.devuan.org/devuan/xfce4-session because I was curious what devuan2 was for xfce4-session.  I didn't pay attention to d/changelog. >_>07:51
rrqthe recent "problem" was that it defaulted to using lightdm while a majority of me and fsmithred (and maybe some more) wanted it to install slim by default07:53
rrqwell "task-xfce-desktop" lead to that, due to xfce4-sessions depends/recommends07:54
Unit193https://sourceforge.net/projects/slim.berlios/files/ ouch07:56
rrq(yeah .. a "majority" choice is not always perfect)08:15
