+
+This package, along with libxfcegui4 and mousepad, should be
+dropped.
+
+Both libxfcegui4 and xfprint are dead and buried, and no longer 
+developed or supported upstream.
+
+The only app that used the above pkgs was/is mousepad.
+But even it, in its current incarnation, is also dead.
+(It is being completely rewritten from scratch but no eta.)
+
+It is suggested that leafpad be used as editor instead.
+
+FWIW other distros; fedora, gentoo, arch etc, have already
+dropped them.
