MATE 1.26 in Debian

#1 Post by sdibaja »

MATE 1.26 was just released.
https://mate-desktop.org/blog/2021-08-0 ... -released/

with the normal release cycle MATE 1.26 will not appear in Debian Stable for Two years.
I like to stay with Stable for my daily driver. However I want to use some of those new tools/features.
I imagine 1.26 will be available in Experimental shortly... then Sid in a few more weeks.

from the announcement>
The various components of MATE Desktop 1.26 are available for download here: https://pub.mate-desktop.org/releases/1.26/
That is very daunting and beyond my skill-set .

Is there some "more simple" method of pulling in just 1.26 to Bullseye? (without going full Sid?)

Sid only has MATE 1.24.
Maybe once all the packages that have been waiting get updated MATE will.

But no Bullseye/Stable doesn't get new packages, only security fixes, and stability fixes.
