xubuntu-desktop depends on lightdm-gtk-greeter, and yet while performing
the test case apt wants to pull in unity-greeter instead (see `apt
depends lightdm`). This will install various indicator- packages plus
gnome-control-center.

Explicitly installing the needed package gives the expected result:

sudo apt install xubuntu-desktop lightdm-gtk-greeter

** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: indicator-datetime (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Invalid
