Ben, would you mind to query rpm database for mate-screenshot (rpm -qa | grep mate-screenshot)? It's been in meta-task, particulary in rpmsrate.raw file which is used to determine what packages shnould be installed according to category.

But it is decided by sysadmins which packages should be in DVD and this file in bcd iso build tool don't include mate category to install as defined in rpmsrate file. Instead isos built to include only task-mate-minimal.I don't know why?!

no at all, I have changed my testing set up so I am no longer over-writing the previous DE install when testing another DE.
over-writing will now only happen a new .iso is released.

the info requested:

[matetest@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa | grep mate-screenshot

and / or:

[matetest@localhost ~]$ su -
Password: 
gpg-agent[6553]: directory `/root/.gnupg' created
gpg-agent[6553]: directory `/root/.gnupg/private-keys-v1.d' created
gpg-agent[6554]: gpg-agent (GnuPG) 2.0.29 started
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -qa | grep mate-screenshot


best regards

Ben

After talking with Anne on dev mailing list it's clear that classical isos don't include mate-screenshot due to space limitations. It is same for GNOME, PLASMA5 and others. So, i think this is wont fix for now.
