 The caja-dropbox issue is my fault: I recorded an incorrect dependency
 when I bumped it to 1.22. I'll fix that shortly. Sorry about that!
 
 Concerning mate-utils, I've found it has a particular translation
 file that can cause itstool to fail or segfault (I've seen both). I was
 encountering this with itstool 2.0.4, but with 2.0.5, I couldn't
 reproduce the issue, so I specified a hard dependency on that version
 of the tool in mate-utils's make file. I did ten rebuilds of mate-utils
 and couldn't reproduce the issue. I've since learned others have still
 been encountering the problem (e.g. jmcneill@ hit it in his aarch64
 builds).
