Those files are all installed by the packages. So reinstalling all xfce
related port/packages should fix your problem.

You can get a list of what needs to be reinstalled using:

pkg info -o '*xfce*'

If you're using binary packages you can just pass the output of the
above to pkg upgrade -f like this:

pkg info -o '*xfce*' | xargs pkg upgrade -fy

with portmaster you should be able to use a similar command after
xargs(sorry can't help with portmaster syntax).

For direct ports usage a more manual approach is needed, based on the
output of pkg info.

Some xfce related ports are installed without "xfce" text in their
package name(thunar, garcon and gigolo come to mind) if you still have
problems after the above you should reinstall those too.

The above should work, please let me know if it works fine.
