I didn't use this howto, since I test it on Arch first and likely I
won't continue to install it to Ubuntu Studio, but remove it from
Arch ;). When I get one issue solved for mate, there will appear two new
issues ;). That the "script" calls other software than mate "BLOATWARE"
is ridiculous. It's worth the effort to take a look at Mate, but _keep_
Xfce and _backup_ Ubuntu Studio first.
