[tde-users] Re: Trouble Installing TDE in Devuan Chimaera

No, I just commented out these lines because they would only screw up apt or aptitude or whatever you use to download packages and src files. I just put the notes in my sources list so that I have them for reference, because about every third or fourth time I install a new system, the TDE repositories aren't accepted. Instead of screwing round endlessly, this line gets me started: sudo [torify] apt-get -o Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories=true update instead of sudo [torify] apt-get update I included the lines from my own sources.list. It works for me; that's the only promise I make. Other people do things differently, and they may know better. You will note that I have identical lines for chimaera and bullseye, but one or the other is commented out; that's because chimaera wasn't being recognized (when I tried to download the Trinity packages), but bullseye was. It doesn't matter for TDE (I believe; if I'm wrong, please correct me!): they will work equally under either Debian or Devuan. Trinity desktop is not part of either Debian or Devuan (or SUSE or whatever). The packages ought to be the same for Debian/Devuan. Use whatever lines work. Only when you decide to install either Devuan or Debian, then it matters a great deal. Again, most of the packages are identical, or at least ought to work; but those that don't work will maybe mess up your system and you'll need to start over. So make sure you get your Devuan/Debian lines right, whatever you choose to install. Bill P.S. You don't actually need these lines immediately following; this is just for my own reference, in case the TDE repos are problematic.) # Trinity - TDE - ### Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories # sudo torify apt-get -o Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories=true update # sudo apt-get -o Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories=true update If bullseye doesn't work but chimaera does, then change what lines are commented out. Choose either bullseye or chimaera. Comment out or cut the lines for the other one, so you don't have duplicates. Here are the lines for my TDE: # Trinity - TDE deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-r14.0.x bullseye main deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-builddeps-r14.0.x bullseye main deb-src http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-r14.0.x bullseye main deb-src http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-builddeps-r14.0.x bullseye main # Trinity - TDE #deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-r14.0.x chimaera main #deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-builddeps-r14.0.x chimaera main #deb-src http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-r14.0.x chimaera main #deb-src http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-builddeps-r14.0.x chimaera main # Trinity preliminary stable builds deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-sb bullseye deps-r14 main-r14 deb-src http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-sb bullseye deps-r14 main-r14 # Trinity preliminary stable builds #deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-sb chimaera deps-r14 main-r14 #deb-src http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-sb chimaera deps-r14 main-r14 # Trinity preliminary testing builds #deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity-testing daedalus deps extra main #deb-src http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity-testing daedalus deps extra main #deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-testing bullseye deps main #deb-src http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-testing bullseye deps main # Trinity preliminary testing builds #deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-testing chimaera deps main #deb-src http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-testing chimaera deps main
