If they didn't get the hint from the Conflicts:/Replaces: on xfce4-panel
is there really much hope that they'll check bugs.d.o ? ;)

I'm not really bothered either way to be honest.  I think a better thing
would be for the BTS to report ftp.d.o bugs on the package pages as well
and will file a bug for that.

Can I ask why you wanted it installed or how you got into a situation
where your apt frontend tried to install it?
