OK.  So actually what happens is that changing themes works, but the
thing crashes right after changing themes (which I didn’t notice when
spawning xfce4-appearance-settings by clicking in the menu).

Applied, thanks!

> BTW do you think the way the gnome package is made with propagated inputs is better than how the xfce is made by union-ing everything?

No strong opinion, either way is fine with me.

* gnu/packages/xfce.scm (xfce4-settings):[propagated-inputs]: Add
gsettings-desktop-schemas. This makes it appear in the system profile
via the xfce service. This fixes a bug where changing icon theme causes
xfce4-appearance-settings to crash with the error:

GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 15:41:45.828: Settings schema 'org.gnome.desktop.interface' is not installed
Trace/breakpoint trap
