MATE 1.6 to 1.8 Upgrade HOWTO <willysr@slackware-id.org>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This document explains how to upgrade from MATE 1.6 to 1.8 in Slackware 14.1.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Before you begin, I would strongly recommend making a backup of your
|
||
|
|
system, or, if not the entire system, at least the /etc and your home directory.
|
||
|
|
You might find that you need to refer to a few things after the upgrade
|
||
|
|
process is complete. Back it up, or take your chances.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OK, now that everything is safely backed up, let's proceed. :-)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To do this, you'll need the MATE 1.8 packages ready in your local system. Grab it
|
||
|
|
from official repository at http://www.slackware.org.uk/msb/ or any other mirror sites.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
0. log out from MATE Desktop
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Upgrade/Install all new packages from MATE 1.8
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
upgradepkg --install-new --reinstall /path/to/base/*.txz
|
||
|
|
upgradepkg --install-new --reinstall /path/to/extra/*.txz
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Remove obsolete packages
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-file-manager-gksu
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-file-manager-image-converter
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-file-manager-open-terminal
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-file-manager-sendto
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-keyring
|
||
|
|
removepkg libmatekeyring
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-doc-utils
|
||
|
|
removepkg libmatewnck
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-character-map
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Remove renamed packages
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-file-manager
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-window-manager
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-document-viewer
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-image-viewer
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-file-archiver
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-menu-editor
|
||
|
|
removepkg mate-text-editor
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You will notice that some of the files are found on other packages and it will not be deleted.
|
||
|
|
That's fine, since these packages gets a new name on MATE 1.8 (see MATE-1.8-CHANGES.TXT).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At this point you should be running MATE 1.8 on Slackware 14.1. :-)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I wish everyone good luck with this!
