mate-system-monitor 1.26.0-4 added a new dependency on mate-session-manager.

That's because it uses mate-session-check-accelerated (which is found
in mate-session-manager).

However, Ubuntu Budgie, Ubuntu Kylin, and Ubuntu Unity all include
mate-system-monitor in their default install. mate-session-manager
ends up pulling in the MATE desktop which is definitely unwanted and
disruptive for those Ubuntu flavors.

Could you just drop the dependency? Things apparently have worked well
enough for a while without mate-session-manager installed.

My suggestion would be: introduce new bin:pkg mate-session-check-accelerated and move those libexec executables into that package. Then we can depend on it.

How is that?
