As of 1.24, MATE requires GNU-specific msgfmt features. meta-pkgs/mate/
Makefile.common r. 1.10 expressed this tool dependency using
USE_BUILTIN.gettext=no, but this exposed pkgsrc gettext-libs in the
build environment as well, which some MATE packages then linked
against, but gettext-libs didn't end up being declared as a run-time
dependency, so binary package installations were broken (with the
workaround of manually installing the undeclared gettext-libs
dependency). Express this dependency differently, so GNU msgfmt is
used as a tool without exposing pkgsrc gettext-libs.
(The pkgsrc tooling infrastruture could be altered to provide a
distinct "gmsgfmt" tool, same with "gxgettext", and perhaps others.
Here I'm just immediately concerned with fixing this packaging issue.)
Addresses PR pkg/55503 by Jay Patel.
This release contains plenty of new features, bug-fixes, and general
improvements. Some of the most important highlights include:
* We did it again, the MATE desktop environment is easier to use than before,
once the user starts the session. Do you want to hide applications startup?
Now you can set which applications to show on startup.
* Engrampa now has support for a handful of extra formats, as well as fixed
support for passwords and unicode characters in some of them.
* Eye of MATE now has support for Wayland and we’ve added support for
embedded color profiles.
* The thumbnail generation has been reworked and fixed in several places.
* Added support for webp files.
* Our window manager, marco, has gotten quite a few changes:
* We’ve brought a bunch of window decorations from the past to feed
your nostalgia.
* Finally added invisible resize borders. No more struggling to find a
border to grab with your mouse!
* All window controls (you know, the min, max, close buttons) are now
rendered in HiDPI.
* The Alt+Tab and Workspace Switcher popups have been entirely reworked.
Now they render in beautiful OSD style, are more configurable, and can
respond to keyboard arrows.
* Tiling windows with the keyboard now allows you to cycle through
different window sizes. You no longer need to feel constrained by only
half of your screen.
* The System Monitor panel applet now has support for NVMe drives.
* Calculator now supports using either “pi” or “π”.
* Scientific notation has been improved.
* Some fixes for supporting pre-defined physical constants.
* The Control Center now displays its icons correctly on HiDPI displays.
* A brand new Time And Date Manager app has been added.
* The Mouse app now supports acceleration profiles.
* The Preferred Applications app has been improved for accessibility, as well
as better support for integration with IM clients.
* The Indicator Applet has slightly better interaction with
oddly-sized icons.
* Speaking of icons, the network manager applet icons in our own themes have
been entirely redesigned and can now be enjoyed on HiDPI displays.
* If you’re the type of person that does not like to be disturbed when busy,
or giving a presentation, or watching a movie, you’ll be happy to know that
the notification daemon now supports a Do-Not-Disturb mode.
* The MATE Panel had several bugs that caused crashes in the past when
changing layouts. Those are now fixed!
* Support for Wayland compatibility has improved considerably.
* Status icons (a.k.a. notification area, or system tray) have support
for HiDPI displays.
* Wanda the Fish got a make-over and now you can enjoy her in full
HiDPI glory.
* The window list applet now supports window thumbnails on hover.
* Various accessibility improvements throughout the panel and its
core applets.
* If your system doesn’t, uh, support systemd you might be interested in
knowing that we’ve added support for elogind to both the MATE Screensaver
and the MATE Session.
* We’ve also added a brand new MATE Disk Image Mounter utility.
* Mozo, the menu editor, now supports Undo and Redo actions.
* Pluma plugins have now fully switched to Python 3.
* Pluma no longer has to envy anything from other complex editors, since it
can now show the formatting marks.
* i18n: All applications have been migrated from intltools to gettext.

This is the MATE terminal emulator application. mate-terminal is
only the shell (menubar, prefs dialog); the terminal emulation ("stuff
in the middle") comes from the VTE widget. Remember this when
report a bug. ;-)
MATE terminal is a fork of GNOME terminal.
