0. Log out from the MATE desktop.
1. Upgrade and install all new MATE 1.8 packages:
1. Upgrade and install all new MATE 1.10 packages:
upgradepkg --install-new --reinstall /path/to/deps/*.txz
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-menu-editor

are included in new packages with a new name in MATE 1.8 (see
MATE-1.8-CHANGES.TXT).
4. Remove PAM-related packages (optional):
If you happened to install pam/pam_unix2 packages in MATE 1.6 to get
/testing/mate-screensaver working for the desktop locking feature, you
will be glad to know that mate-screensaver is now moved to /extra and
no longer needs the pam and pam_unix2 libraries anymore. So, if you
installed pam for MATE 1.6, these two packages can be safely deleted:
removepkg pam
removepkg pam_unix2
5. Run xwmconfig and select xinitrc.mate-session. This ensures you get the
