The following is a list of notes on building MATE on Slackware -current:
Fri Nov 15 18:59:46 UTC 2013
The following packages are now available since Slackware 14.1:
- dconf
- itstool
Thus, it's no longer needed in the deps directory anymore.
if you are using the mate-build-base.sh script, then please edit that
script and remove this lines:
deps/dconf \
deps/itstool \

Current MATE 1.7 development (future MATE 1.8) is replacing mate-doc-utils
with yelp-tools. This change requires yelp-tools and yelp-xsl to be added to
deps/. Both require itstool, which is already available on Slackware
-current, so there is no need to build itstool if you are using Slackware
-current.

Pat has rebuilt xdg-utils in Slackware 14.1 to properly support MATE DE,
so xdg-utils patch is no longer needed in Slackware -current, but running
these two commands as normal user are still needed to set caja as the default

replace any stock Slackware packages. (If you are building on -current, then
