The still existing mate-themes nonsense is now hard blocking gtk+-3.24 upgrade to those that have MATE installed. Please fix it once and for all, I knew we already agreed to that and that the subslot stuff is removed, as the theming API is stable. At least remove the old uninstallable subslots too, and provide a version that can be installed with gtk+-3.24..
