I never did that!

Does Debian recommend to use third party repositories?

Mate isn't ready yet to be used without issues, it someday might be
included to the official repositories. The decisions from upstream have
nothing to do with the used distro. The more a package maintainer needs
to work, to make upstream compatible to a distro, the more likely are
issues.

Why do you think that there is neither an official repository for
Debian, Ubuntu or Arch? Blind hate against Mate? Do you believe in a
conspiracy against Mate?

> Ralf, every one of your objections to MATE have been refuted.

No, you don't understand why upstream is important, even if there should
be packages for Debian, that shouldn't cause issues.

Ralf

for that, but you make that often mistakes, then consider that it might
be possible, that you make a mistake regarding to Mate too.
