I am not a regular orca user, nor a regular XFCE nor even gnome
user(!) however I regularly install the various desktops on various
systems  such as initially xfce then add the ubuntu-desktop or the
other combinations. I then (another story) can choose which session to
run at login time, say, XFCE or Gnome. What this flags up to me as a
non expert :-) is that something installed in ubuntu is now available
to me when I choose to run XFCE, all the 'alien' libraries are now
installed of course. It will be obvious to many but initially it was
not to me.

I hope this is useful.
