I have been running Mate on Centos 7 for some time but it does not work very well on my HiDPI laptop screen. Today I found that I am running version 1.16 of Mate whereas the current version is 1.22. Undoubtedly many of the issues have been fixed since 1.16 was released in 2016...

However, EPEL only provides 1.16 - a release from 2016 - and nothing later.

What is the recommended way to upgrade to 1.22?
