  [Impact]

   * Ubuntu MATE Welcome has a post installation assistant that guide
  the user through updating software and installing drivers. The
  "Install Firmware" feature currently includes `linux-firmware-nonfree`
  in its package list. linux-firmware-non-free was recently removed from
  the Xenial archive (LP: #1513589) therefore this feature now fails.

   * Ubuntu MATE Welcome has a post install assistant specific to the Raspberry Pi to resize the partition to the full size of the microSDHC.
  This currently does work.

   * A few strings are not currently marked up and therefore the
  translated versions are not exposed.

   * This updated version of Ubuntu MATE Welcome makes a few small
  changes, it removes linux-firmware-nonfree from the install options
  such that the "Install Firmware" feature works, corrects string markup
  and reverts the commit that broke the Raspberry Pi partition resize.

  [Test Cases]

   * Install Ubuntu MATE 16.04. When Welcome is displayed after login
  click Getting Started -> Drivers -> Install Firmware Package. Enter
  your password when prompted, should after you'll be notified that the
  firmware install failed.

   * Install Ubuntu MATE 16.04 on a Raspberry Pi 2 or 3. When Welcome is
  displayed after login click Raspberry Pi information -> Resize
  Partition. A failure notification is displayed.

   * Once Ubuntu MATE Welcome 16.04.9.1 is installed the above steps
  will complete successfully.

  [Regression Potential]

   * None.
