Package: mate-desktop-environment Version: 1.8.0+2 Severity: wishlist Hi!
Back in the day, this kind of metapackages used to be named foo-desktop-environment. This is no more, yet I see that for some reason MATE uses this old scheme. I'd say this is both inconsistent and confusing. A package named "mate-desktop" exists, yet it's not what one would expect. On the other hand, other desktop environments' metapackages are named: gnome lxde kde-standard xfce4 xfce4-goodies As 3/4 of these use just their short name, I'd suggest using just "mate" as well.
