Bug#1109787: unblock: mate-desktop-environment/1.26.0+2
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: mate-desktop-environment@packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:mate-desktop-environment
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
Please unblock package mate-desktop-environment
This upload contains various changes that have been committed to Git and
used in Ubuntu MATE for a long time. Plus changes from me to make the MATE
meta package fit for Debian 13.
[ Reason ]
(Explain what the reason for the unblock request is.)
+ [ Martin Wimpress ]
+ * debian/control:
+ + Favour ubuntu-mate-themes over mate-themes. Inert change on Debian.
+ * debian/20_mate-ubuntu.gschema.override (not affecting Debian):
+ + Set the correct default xcursor theme for Ubuntu.
+ + Update Ubuntu MATE default settings.
+ + Use Yaru GtkSourceView styles
-> all above changes stem from Ubuntu MATE development and are no-op
when building the mate-desktop-environment src:pkg on Debian.
+ * debian/10_mate-common.gschema.override:
+ + Invoke x-terminal-emulator. (LP: #1873750)
+ + Invoke area screen capture directly (LP: #1872558)
-> Both fix issues on MATE desktop on Debian, too, although originally
fixed for Ubuntu MATE. In short terms:
(a) honour the x-terminal-emulator alternative, so default terminal
emulator in MATE follows what update-alternative has configured.
(b) fix are screen capture via hotkey
+ [ Mike Gabriel ]
+ * debian/control:
+ + Add to R: (mate-desktop-environment): matekbd-keyboard-display.
+ + Add to R: (mate-desktop-environment): mate-indicator-applet.
-> Make it easier for people to try Ayatana Indicators on MATE.
+ + Add to R: (mate-desktop-environment): pipewire-audio | pulseaudio.
+ This fixes an incomplete audio-stack initiated by libcanberra-pulse
+ (recommending pipewire-pulse only). (Closes: #1107132).
-> Assures that audio works on fresh MATE installs on Debian 13.
+ + In Suggests:, switch from network-manager-gnome to network-manager-
+ applet. (Closes: #1086833).
-> follow bin:pkg name change in network-manager-applet.
[ Impact ]
Nothing critical, except maybe the audio issue, if this upload won't get
accepted. Although most items are nice to have.
[ Tests ]
Manual installation of a HP EliteBook (Debian 12 minimal -> Debian 13
minimal, apt-get install task-desktop-mate +
mate-desktop-environment-extras).
[ Risks ]
MATE users might be affected, however, the changes have all been well
tested or are inert on Debian.
[ Checklist ]
[x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in testing
[ Other info ]
Relevant to Debian MATE users.
