I the did the following: all these commands were run as root.
Since I wanted to install TDE only -- no other DEs -- I ran command
"apt-get x-window-system". When that was done I was able to run
successfully startx.
I added to /etc/sources.list the following two lines:
deb
http://mirror.xcer.cz/trinity-sb stretch deps-r14 main-r14
deb-src
http://mirror.xcer.cz/trinity-sb stretch deps-r14 main-r14
I then ran successfully:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver
keys.gnupg.net --recv-key A04BE668
and then "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" successfully.
When next I ran "apt-get install tde-trinity"
the following was returned.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not been created or been
move out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
tde-trinity: Depends: tde-core-trinity (>= 4:14.0.0~) but it is not
going to be installed.
tde-trinity: Depends: tdegraphics-trinity (>= 4:14.0.0~) but it is not
going to be installed.
E: Unable to correct problems; you have broken packages.
Running "aptitude install tde-trinity returns a similar message.
I would appreciate it greatly if someone could tell me what all the
foregoing means and what to do now to install the TDE.

Hi Ken,
see this page
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/DebianInstall#For_Stretch_.28Debian_9.x.29
Stretch is not officially supported yet, although TDE works well in Stretch.
You did everything correct, but last command should be
sudo aptitude install tde-trinity
If this doesn't work, it means some packages are now broken and we will need to fix
them.
Hopefully I can come back and do some work very soon (I also use Stretch, so if some
packages are broken I will
have to work on them whenever I want to update).
Please let us know how it goes.
Cheers
Michele
