Thanks for your quick response! I'll try building from the sources while I'm stuck with C7 :-).
Regards,
I have an interest in the latest version of Mate for CentOS 7 as well.
Versions newer than 1.20 don't build on 7. Or, rather, they build but don't result in a stable system.
A newer gcc might work, but I've never tried that as I also moved on to 8.
Rocky, that is.
