You may have seen my posts around on my challenges to build a couple groups to do a group install. That got me to realize, that I probably know which rpms to install and I could 'do it by hand' for now. So first step was:
yum install glx-utils initial-setup-gui mesa-dri-drivers plymouth-system-theme spice-vdagent xorg-x11-drivers xorg-x11-server-Xorg xorg-x11-utils xorg-x11-xauth xorg-x11-xinit xvattr tigervnc-server wayland-protocols-devel xorg-x11-drv-keyboard xorg-x11-drv-libinput xorg-x11-drv-mouse xorg-x11-drv-openchrome
Where xorg-x11-drv-openchrome was not available, but is flagged optional in the group. This installed 16 packages and 263 dependents.
Next the actual Xfce:
yum install Thunar xfce-utils xfce4-panel xfce4-session xfce4-settings xfconf xfdesktop xfwm4 gdm leafpad openssh-askpass orage polkit-gnome thunar-archive-plugin thunar-volman tumbler xfce4-appfinder xfce4-icon-theme xfce4-power-manager xfce4-session-engines xfce4-terminal xfwm4-theme-nodoka xfwm4-themes pinentry
First this showed:
No package xfce-utils available. No package leafpad available. No package thunar-archive-plugin available. No package xfce4-icon-theme available. No package xfwm4-theme-nodoka available.
No leafpad is OK, as a check shows that mousepad is available and this is what is in Fedora28. No xfce-utils is not good. It got worst with critical missing dependencies that need to be fixed before I could get this to work:

I am going to have to put this on the back burner until someone can fix these. I do not have the skill sets to do it.
But having Xcfe would be great for an armv7 SOC over Gnome!
