Hi Florian,

Bah indeed.  pluma and mate-applets both fail to build.  :-/

I agree we need more automation here.  One way to do this would be
something like ‘make assert-binaries-available’, which checks for
substitute availability (it could be a prerequisite of ‘make dist’),
where we’d explicitly check for DEs on x86_64 and i686.  That would be
an improvement, though it’d still be quite handcrafted.
