Hi the package has been officially retired and will be blocked.

The fork of it known as "mate-mouse-properties" works wonderfully (and
should work on all GTK/gsettings compliant DEs) but is part of the
mate-control-center package.

We are working on splitting out the binary for those that want to use it.
