So it's not in a package...
Unless you installed over an existing root (without reformatting), deliberately
installed Xfce without using a package, or one of dpkg's database files is
corrupted in a very weird way, I honestly don't have an idea of this
happened...
I guess I'll just try to reinstall. I initially tried to install
testing/ascii, but couldn't complete install software. So I retreated to
jessie, and had the same problem, but after choosing not to install CUPS
(and no desktop manager), I finally succeeded but for the problem under
discussion. When I redo, I'll repartition and not use the default
partitioning scheme. I'll report on my success.
