I wanted
to install trinity, preliminary stable, alongside KDE.
a) You say Buster. Where did you install TDE from? What version? As
far as I know, for Buster you need the premilinary builds.
Didn't I write that? And it came from
deb
http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity-sb buster deps-r14
main-r14
b) You say KDE 3.5.10. I seem to remember that
install instructions
said to purge any KDE 3.5 elements befor install. So yes, KDE 3.5 and
TDE clash. It's known. I guess that's because thes share files with
the same name, but different contents.
Wiki.trinity.desktop.org:
"TDE will automatically execute a script which will migrate as many of
your KDE3/TDE3.5.x settings as possible. At the end of the process,
your KDE3/TDE3.5.x profile will still exist (unchanged) and a new TDE
profile will have been created inside the ~/.trinity folder."
This is about the user's config files in $HOME/.kde, not about installed
packages. You can try to just use your old ~/.kde (kde3!) settings in
~/.trinity. The mentioned script just copies some selected files from one
to the other.
Kind regards,
Stefan
