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.

If seems the download from the server/mirrors is more reliable now. I gave up testing for a few days, but now it seems that the download is (although slowly) progressing without timeout, 509 bandwidth limitiation or error of sort. It is stalls occasionaly, but a stop-go will resume it. Cheers Michele
