Several years ago, I actually built up xfce (without the meta package) from a 
base install.  Then I found refracta which simplified my life as it was very 
close to what I wanted.  fsmithred has promised to build a devuan iso for the 
likes of me.  But he's not been seen around here in some time and the refracta 
forums haven't had much traffic lately . . . maybe because it's summer.  Once 
the beta appears I'm hoping he'll spin into action.  Doing this all from 
scratch would be a bit of a challenge for me . . . the years are beginning to 
take a toll . . .
