Since I'm an Xfce type, I'll go that route first. I'm thinking that the same process has a good chance of working as long as the dependencies are the right version. I'll post steps of road blocks.

Thank you very much. I'll try to validate your process this weekend using F28 as you did. That should yield an older MATE v1.16. With that in hand, I'll try to re-run the procedure using the counterpart MATE v1.22 packages from Rawhide.

I'm not a fan of Gnome 3 so would like to get Xfce up and running on CentOS 8 with a minimum of effort. I'm thinking the folks asking about Mate in the other thread have the same sentiment.
