Install xfce4 on Debian
This is how I install xfce4 on a new Debian:
yes | \
for x in `apt-cache search xfce4 \
| sort \
| awk 'BEGIN { FS = " - " } { print $1 }'`; do \
apt install $x; \
done
Or if you prefer a less transactional install, you can use xargs
apt-cache search xfce4 \
| sort \
| awk 'BEGIN { FS = " - " } { print $1 }' \
| xargs apt install -y
