I'm interested in tinkering with components of MATE and testing them while 
leaving the APT-installed versions alone. I've built and installed the 
components from the Github repos and installed them to /usr/local/. I 
can't figure out how to load applets from /usr/local. In particular, can 
someone tell me how to use the /usr/local version of the Workspace 
Switcher instead of /usr/?
