[needs-packaging] ubuntu-mate-welcome

[Martin Wimpress ]

I have created a new application specifically for Ubuntu MATE. It is not suitable for Debian so I am requesting it is uploaded to Ubuntu directly.

Ubuntu MATE Welcome is simple application that users will see when they first login into Ubuntu MATE. It is designed to introduce them to the system, help get the orientated and complete some initial system updates and configuration.

  * A welcome screen for Ubuntu MATE that provides links to helpful resources and utilities.

I built this locally then installed then installed with dpkg --install the deps with apt -f install, it gave me this error:

MATE Settings menu not found in /etc/xdg/menus at /usr/sbin/update-mate-menu-welcome line 39.
