MATE Desktop integration with openSUSE started…
On September 15, 2012 by Nelson Marques    With 0 Comments - linux, nmarques, suse    

During the last weeks I’ve been working on my free time (and then some more) to bring the MATE Desktop to openSUSE; this brought new challenges in packaging activities; new challenges in integration and above all a lot of fun… Here’s a brief update of last days work…

- Added some of the missing packages to the X11:MATE repository;
- Added some minimum branding, which includes:
+ Droid fonts as default; the main reason was because Droid fonts do support a lot of languages, ex: Chinese.
+ Made Sonar the default theme (requires added for both GTK2 and GTK3 packages);
+ Introduced a bit of crazy code to make sure that default openSUSE artwork would be picked up by MATE;
+ Faenza-Ambiance became the default icon theme (until Faenza-MATE gets finished);
- Improved the 1-Click installer pattern;
- Fixed a few broken dependencies;
- Started merging documentation with devel packages and lang with main packages;
- Cleaned up a lot of stuff
