I haven't (yet) tried an upgrade from 3.5.13.2 to r14.0.0 myself (I will have to test on a VM sometime next week), but when you are going for the dummy package removal, I suggest you try this: run aptitude in interactive mode, select the dummy packages to remove, press 'g'. You will have a screen with a summary of what packages are going to be removed, which most likely will include most of TDE packages (based on your mail) as "autodependency (A)". Mark tdebase, tdelibs and all other "general" tde packages as "keep". This should possibly keep most of TDE installed, while allowing you to remove those dummy packages.
Hi Michele,
I've been trying to figure out a simple way to protect inexperienced users.
The safest approach I've found thus far is:
apt-get update apt-get install tde-trinity apt-get dist-upgrade
This is for Debian. Ubuntu may need a different second step just as initial installs are different for Ubuntu.
I also tried this with aptitude but aptitude goes crazy.

Mike, Slavek, Tim, I am doing testing on upgrading from 3.5.13.2 to R14.0.0 on a default Wheezy installation. Using the "installation" instructions on the wiki page fails, so we will probably need to update those pages and differentiate between "new install" and "upgrade". Given the slowness of package transfer (I am using the official packages, not my own build, to avoid any possible mistake), I am still testing various ways. I will update again later on.
Cheers Michele
