Add MATE support

@pilotbob42, thanks for the extra material. From looking at the patch
and MATE thread it seems the main difference is that MATE uses a
different DBus path for its screen saver; unfortunately, this is already
taken account of in the current xdg-screensaver, so the actual problem
must be some other
@jorgicio, at least on Ubunutu Mate 18.04.1 LTS (which uses Mate 1.20
and XDG-Utils 1.1.2) I think you'll find (as I have) that Caffeine 2.9.4
can inhibit power management correctly, but not the screen saver (mate-
screensaver). As Thomas correctly points out, this is not Caffeine's
fault as it
Hi! I can't believe this is still a topic at the time.
I submitted this patch 3 years ago, so it's obvious may not work in
recent versions of MATE. I used caffeine for some time and with recent
versions of MATE, this patch is not needed anymore.
Anyways, I stopped using caffeine and using its
@pilotbob42, thanks for the explanation, that makes more sense.
However, xdg-utils has explicit support for MATE, so if it's broken,
it's a bug and should be fixed. (xdg-screensaver has ad hoc support for
a wide range of desktop environments; there is no requirement to support

@rrt, looking back at my last reply, I mistyped. What I meant to say is

@pilotbob42, if xdg-screensaver works, then the bug is in Caffeine, and
you can report a bug against Caffeine. mate-screensaver is not involved.

@rrt, thanks, but I'm sure that scenario would work just fine and then
they would refer me to report a bug against mate-screensaver who would
then just suggest that I use the mate inhibit panel applet instead.
Which works fine, but is not an indicator like yours and is essentially
unthemeable (it
@pilotbob42 if you could test Ubuntu 18.04.1's xdg-screensaver under
MATE, and report a bug against xdg-utils if it doesn't work, that would
be great. I'm sorry that Caffeine 2.9.4 doesn't work for you, but it's
no longer under Caffeine's control (conversely, fixing xdg-screensaver
