@Edhoary:
I have already prepared compiz packages, but they are for compiz-0.8.14
and Alex told me that I should package for the 0.9 branch instead.
My answer to him is at the bottom of this message.

I will make a Slint package for mate-tweak. I just hope that it hasn't
any dependency on Ubuntu or systemd as I just found the git repository:
https://github.com/ubuntu-mate/mate-tweak

@Alex:
I consider building the stable release compiz-0.9.13.1 from here:
https://launchpad.net/compiz/0.9.13

and mate-tweak-18.04.2 from there:
https://github.com/ubuntu-mate/mate-tweak/archive/18.04.2.tar.gz

Is that new enough? Anything special about configure options and setup?

Any suggestion to increase Slint accessibility is of course welcome.
