[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: MATE Desktop 1.8.2

[Yaakov Selkowitz <yselkowitz at cygwin dot com>]

The following packages (and their subpackages) have been updated in the 
Cygwin distribution:

* atril-1.8.1-1
* caja-1.8.2-1
* caja-python-1.8.1-1
* engrampa-1.8.1-1
* eom-1.8.1-1
* marco-1.8.2-1
* mate-applets-1.8.1-1
* mate-control-center-1.8.3-1
* mate-panel-1.8.1-1
* mate-settings-daemon-1.8.2-1
* mate-terminal-1.8.1-1
* mate-utils-1.8.1-1

The MATE Desktop Environment is the continuation of GNOME 2. It provides 
an intuitive and attractive desktop environment using traditional 
metaphors for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems.

To run the MATE desktop, install the mate-session-manager package and 
its dependencies, and either use the provided Start Menu shortcut, or:

echo "/usr/bin/dbus-launch mate-session" > $HOME/.xinitrc

and run 'startx' from the Cygwin prompt to launch.

This is an update to the latest upstream bugfixes for 1.8.  Please note 
that mate-terminal requires xorg-server 1.16.2-1 or newer to work in 
XWin -multiwindow mode.
