root at openindiana:~# pkg search -l depend::library/desktop/gtk3/gtk-backend-cups
INDEX       ACTION VALUE                                                    PACKAGE
incorporate depend library/desktop/gtk3/gtk-backend-cups at 3.24.23-2020.0.1.0 pkg:/consolidation/userland/userland-incorporation at 0.5.11-2020.0.1.13521
require     depend library/desktop/gtk3/gtk-backend-cups                    pkg:/mate_install at 0.1-2020.0.1.42

I installed my test Hipster VM via the text ISO and then installed
mate_install to get the GUI.
Does the GUI ISO installer not include mate_install?
