Rocky 10 "Easy Mode" MATE Desktop Spin

Sorry, haven’t checked on this in a while. I’ve been running this on my own hardware, and it seemed to upgrade to 10.1 pretty smoothly.

But I’ll try some different scenarios: clean 10.0 install with a Mate groupinstall, clean 10.1 install with a Mate groupinstall, and updating my 10.0 ISO to 10.1. If rebuilds or changes are necessary in the COPR, I’ll make them!

I think there will always be a bit of a bumpy transition between minor versions for anyone relying on EPEL. New minor version .x packages are not released 100% in sync with RHEL or Rocky, or any of the other clone distros. So there’s always a period there where dnf update might conflict for a week or 2, then be smooth sailing as Rocky (or EPEL maintainers) catch up.
