Greetings,
I tried to install mate-common-dev¹ this morning, but it fails to download its source file²:
-> Downloading mate-common-1.21.0.tar.xz... [... curl progress meter skipped ...] curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found ==> ERROR: Failure while downloading http://pub.mate-desktop.or/releases/1.21/mate-common-1.21.0.tar.xz Aborting...
I checked the source directory,³ and sure enough, there is no mate-common tarball there.
A lot of other mate-*-dev packages depend on mate-common-dev; what's the easiest path forward to a mate-desktop-dev installation?
There is no mate-common 1.21 release, and this is broken because the incompetent person who maintains these packages has uploaded it on a cronjob which does not check to make sure the packages work. -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
