Hi Giacomo,

Hi Mike

Thanks for reporting this. This needs to be fixed upstream+downstream.

What are the files that trouble you (and us all)? (Asking, because I can't check right now, because I am at a customer).

Manpages.

I had a look at the contents of the package, apparently everything else has
a unique (full) filename, meaning that at least some part of the path is
unique, even if the final filename duplicates something in gnome, so this is
ok.

Instead, most manpages in man1 in the package have exactly the same name as
their gnome counterparts, so these should be changed/fixed. E.g. cdplayer_applet.1.gz, charpick_applet.1.gz, cpufreq-selector.1.gz,
drivemount_applet.1.gz, geyes_applet.1.gz, gkb_applet.1.gz, ...
Perhaps they should all be prefixed with "mate-" or suffixed with "-mate" or
something similar to make their names unique.

This should be relatively painless, apart from having to do some script-fu
to rename the manpages before building the deb binary package... Could be
done by awk probably, or even with some pipeing of commands like
cd $INSTALL/usr/share/man/man1 ; for i in `ls *.1.gz` ; mv $i mate-$i ; done
or something along these lines.

Cheers
Giacomo

I removed the man pages again from the bin:package... for now... I have pinged upstream to get this fixed [1].
