After investigating their current binary versions in stretch (I'm only
watching on their source versions until now, and I'm not aware about
binNMUs before), I just realized that a "+b1~bop8+1" could be a good suffix
for those jessie packages that only need to be rebuilt against backported
new libs.

Is this OK?

>> Hi there!
>>
>> I've just built a complete backport of packages maintained by Xfce Debian
>> Maintainers (including XFCE 4.12, LightDM 1.14, and LightDM GTK+ Greeter
>> 2.0.1) and uploaded it to my OBS repo:
>>
>> https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:lbssousa:debian:xfce
>>
>> The main motivation for my backport efforts are the following:
>>
>> * XFCE 4.12: better handling of CSD-enabled applications (e.g. Evince)
>> * LightDM 1.14: improved multi-seat support (when compared to 1.10)
>> * LightDM GTK+ Greeter: better integration with Numix theme; fix an
>> annoying bug regarding timed autologin (LP #854261).
>>
>> Please consider reviewing and/or uploading them to jessie-backports.
