Hello Sidlix,

This caused by a mismatch between repos of mate.desktop.org and debian.
See: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=733512#25
The migration of mate-desktop to debian is in progress in parts over a long time..

Holding of mate-desktop-common solves this problem for me this time:

Code: [Select]

echo mate-desktop-common hold|dpkg --set-selectionsand d-u was o.k..

I think we will have some more difficulties in further times until the migration of mate-desktop is finished.

Regards
