[manjaro-dev] new sonar-iso-profiles package needed?

[kendell clark]

hi
I'm currently building a mate image on my mac. It's taking ages due to
it's relatively slow dual core processor but I'm hoping it works better
than the same image built on my more powerful desktop. If it doesn't
I'll build your gnome profile.
Thanks
