From #gentoo-dev: <@ulm> sam_: had you seen my question in the -dev ML about mate-themes{,-meta}? <@ulm> basically, mate-themes-meta was dropped as a dependency of mate[themes], so x11-themes/mate-themes won't be pulled in any more <@ulm> which made me wonder if mate-themes is obsolete See also https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/c18fb748b01ced7c2f15562b2b49f9a9. Do we need x11-themes/mate-themes still? Should it be an optfeature on another package, or something else? I'm not saying we need to get rid of it - just wondering if it's useful still.

immolo, nothing depends on x11-themes/mate-themes now (has been the case for a while, see original comment) - is that intentional? mate-base/mate's USE=themes does not pull in mate-themes. Perhaps it should?
You are right, I confused two packages is what happened here with -meta part of the bug. Upstream still support this package so we should too is my view. I agree we should pull this in with +themes as I think it's reasonable to assume it would pull this in as well. Revbump incoming for a real fix to the bug.
