(SOLVED) Uninstalling Xfce4

This may be a dumb question, but it's Monday morning here Down Under and I am having difficulty uninstalling Xfce, which I use as my wm. When I do a sudo pacman -Rs xfce4, I get failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies). Checked the forum, the Wiki as well as the Xfce Wiki but can't pick up any leads. Any pointers?

Re: (SOLVED) Uninstalling Xfce4

you have things installed that depend on packages in the xfce4 group. pacman -Rsc should do it, but check the list carefully.
