it's going to take to get a large group of people to use Trinity DE.

I did this afternoon a chroot base (debootstrap) "install" of
wheezy and proceeded to install Trinity to it. Rather than the
"official" method (which uses metapackages, e.g. kde-trinity) I
used a custom list of TDE applications for a "light" TDE.
My list is posted here: http://paste.debian.net/131358/
I could convert this to a "real" install later, but for now I want
to see what dependency issues there might be.
I identified the following, all of which are deprecated in Wheezy
but available (and installable) from Squeeze :
libavahi-qt3-1
libsensors3
libmtp8
libpoppler-qt2
libpoppler5
There may be others in a more full TDE setup. So far it seems that
enabling Squeeze repos in Wheezy still allows TDE to install
without errors.
Hope this helps anyone wanting to try Testing, maybe even LMDE or Sid
have had TDE installed on sid for a long time now aslong as you add the
required repos from squeeze you wont have problems and it wont affect
the stability of your system by haveing older debian repos in your list
(it always favours your default (or most up to date depending on
settings) repo unless a specific version is needed)
