Um, no. This 99% not trinity bug. Your test
result indicate bug in
either in dpkg or debconf, and considering i dont have this problem on
debian stretch it is probably a devuan introduced bug.
I think I misunderstood your previous mail on 04.07.2018 from which I
concluded after I did the testing that it is a bug in tdm-trinity install
scripts.
If it changed to slim - Force reinstall slim.
If default dm remained slim after that than this is a bug in tdm-trinity
install scripts, create a bug report in trinity bugzilla.
That is what happened
in all my tests.
If it changed back to tdm-trinity
That
happened in none of my tests.
Yep i missed the case with reinstalling slim while tdm is a default. That
change to slim cannot happen as a result if tdm-trinity bug. It is also
cannot be a bug in slim because a change happens while reinstalling
tdm. This is a bug in debconf probably but maybe in dpkg. Well theoretically
there is a possibility that there are bugs in both slim and tdm-trinity
packages...
Also I found an old bug report (#36) on trinity bugzilla[1] which
described the same problem with gdm and kdm-kde3 packages and which had
been closed "due to lack of response". That assured me somehow of having
run into the same one.
than this is a bug in dpkg (probably devuan one,
as i dont have this
problem on stretch). Report this to devuan.
The slim package has been adopted by
devuan. After all, I think you're
right. Thanks again.
