Xfce people, could you please bring some input on that issue?

TIA

Quoting Leo L. Schwab (ewhac at ewhac.org):
> Package: task-xfce-desktop
> Version: 3.35
> Severity: normal

> Dear Maintainer,

> 	task-xfce-desktop has grown a dependency on the package
> light-locker, which is billed as a lightweight alternative to xscreensaver.
> I suspect this is to track a similar change in xfce4-session, which recently
> also added a dependency for light-locker.
> 
> 	However, xfce4-session only Recommends light-locker; it does not
> Depends on it.  light-locker at the moment doesn't seem to play well with
> xscreensaver, and is something of a nuisance.  For those of us who prefer
> xscreensaver, light-locker gets in the way.
> 
> 	I suggest that task-xfce-desktop reduce the dependency on
> light-locker from Depends to Recommends.
