the problem since May and the very reason i made a LXDE version is because there is some regression in mate itself which is causing all new builds of the mate ISO to be broken and we have not yet found the solution - if not for this issue than this probably would have been re-packaged back in May ---------- On 09/22/2017 06:16 AM, Josh Branning wrote: > I seem to remember there being two different repositories for this you may be thinking of the obsolete build system - that was replaced around 2013 and remains there for historical reasons - a more astute point to make though is that the CURRENT parabolaiso repo has itself not seen any upstream changes since 2013 and is really worth investigating as to how difficult it would be to rebase now ---------- On 09/22/2017 06:16 AM, Josh Branning wrote:> install scripts for MATE and LXDE on the CLI iso and perhaps even on the > graphical isos as a sort-of backup, if they're not already. the LXDE ISO currently includes the original mate install script in /root for in case X fails to load - it still work fine - the regression i mentioned only affects the live environment - i agree it is a good idea to retain it as long as it works - some others are working on an idea to make tutorial system for the CLI installer so perhaps the install script could be added when that is finished - that is a lower priority now though as long as the current graphical installer is broken
