Bug#658783: ITP: mate-common -- common scripts and macros to develop with MATE
Hi Thomas, Do you have any news about this package? I see it in the "new-queue" some days ago but it seem to disappear from the list now. Does it rejected? Yes. mate-common was rejected due to an incomplete debian/copyright file and missing GPL headers. I prepared the next version and we are waiting that one of the DDs in our team will upload it again.

Bug#658783: MATE Desktop Environment in Debian
Il 2012-10-21 01:15 Josselin Mouette ha scritto: Most issues people have with GNOME 3 “classic” usually boil down to “the panel is black instead of grey”. I dont think so. There are a lot of differences between MATE and GNOME fallback. Some examples: the new layout of all applications with so many removed buttons, the removed tree sidebar and compact view in nautilus, etc. Anyway, you’re welcome to package MATE in Debian. Just fix all the code duplication stupidity before. So far no one has volunteered to do so. This is not true. MATE team is working hard to do this and we are in a good point. Migration to gsettings/dbus (and deletion of obsolete libs like bonobo, gconf, gnome-vfs, libgnome, libgnomeui and libgnomecanvas) is almost complete, and GNOME developers helped us on this too. In addition to this, MATE offers new features too. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I don’t see the point of renaming it, starting another daemon, and whatnot, if you provide the same functionality. If you want to keep maintaining GConf for longer than they plan, I don’t think upstream developers will prevent you from doing it. This is a good news. I didnt know that GConf is still maintained. This is a good point where we can start to share our forces! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

In our roadmap there is the dismissal of the obsolete libraries, like the replacement of MateConf (the fork of GConf) with GSettings, and so on. Sorry but what is the point of *forking* GConf? What does it bring, apart from more work for you and more processes for your users? GConf is deprecated. MateConf is born to have a temporary solution until we choose the replacement for it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

(It is easier than re-packaging and maintaining Gnome2). Regards, I just answered before. GNOME3 is a completely different desktop, and I dont think it can have two ideas in same environment. It should follow it main goal to have an attractive desktop. We started to work on MATE and we understand that it's possible and human to work and maintain it.

Maybe this could benefit to both parties if MATE team tries to reduce usage of obsolete libraries to a bare minimum, and avoid using bug monsters (like Bonobo and others). I guess this means a lot of work, but that's the price to pay to ease its maintainability on the long term and having it packaged within Debian. Did MATE team consider such a plan? If yes, what was the outcome of the discussion? Yeah. In our roadmap there is the dismissal of the obsolete libraries, like the replacement of MateConf (the fork of GConf) with GSettings, and so on. We are studying how replace Bonobo and ORBIT, too. About this point I talked some time ago with Karen Sandler to find a meeting point with GNOME3 developers to share more libraries possible between the two desktop environments, to reduce the duplicated work. I dont think work only on fallback session is the solution, because GNOME3 is based on a different idea.
