Description:
xfce4-tips, the application responsible for displaying xfce related tips when you log in, shows an empty window. The reason for that is the missing fortune-mod dependency.

Additional info:
xfce4-tips is part of the xfce4-session package. Adding fortune-mod as a xfce4-session dependency would solve the problem.

Steps to reproduce:
Install xfce4-session individually, or install the xfce4 group package, and run xfce4-tips.
