You are upgrading Mate from Debian over the version from the Mate upstream repositories. This behavior is inevitable since some files have been moved between the packages as opposed to Mate upstream or 1.6.0. We can't really fix this problem, but it anyway affects only people who were previously using the Mate upstream repositories. Just run apt-get with the following options: > apt-get -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-overwrite" -f install Then again, run apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade. Cheers, Adrian -- .''`.
