meta-package for XFCE



As I wrote in my last mail, I'm using NetBSD 7.1.1/amd64. Trying to
install the XFCE environment via pkgin (actually my first experience
with setting up this WM) I faced the following issue.

It would be nice if the package folder /wm had some meta-package for
installing all necessary files for XFCE4. Firstly I installed
wm/xfce4-wm, but it wasn't enough. Then I looked into /All and
installed xfce4, then xfce4-desktop, then xfce4-session and only after
that XFCE started working more or less properly. I don't quite
understand what's the reason of having different packages such as
xfce4, xfce4-wm and xfce4-desktop, when none of them fetches all
necessary files. F.ex. on Ubuntu you only install xfce4 and it's
enough.
