Dear Maintainer,

Upgrading from MATE 1.6 to 1.8, mate-dialogs package fails to tell that it
replaces/provides zenity and so does not install any alternative using
/usr/bin/matedialog.

I manually added this alternative group/entry on my system with update-
alternatives but packages like clamtk which rely upon zenity do not recognize
mate-dialogs as a zenity alternative in their dependancies anymore.

Thank you.

With upstream I have just discussed that we will switch over to using zenity with the MATE desktop environment. This is on the agenda for MATE 1.10 anyway.

We will provide patch 1.8 package versions that already go that path. So reassigning to the marco package (which is the only package that has mate-dialogs as hard dependency).

Mike
