Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: terminal.app

terminal.app does not install properly if xfce4-terminal is installed,
because both packages are using /usr/bin/Terminal. Don't know if this is
a bug in terminal.app or xfce4-terminal, but because you can only choose
on package I chose terminal.app.
