More personal thoughts from a long time user who

install on a debian system since the end of stretch. For newer versions
it has been a dependency hell there is no recovery from but a re-install
of debian. Items removed to satisfy your dependencies have included
glibc for instance. I've complained but no one seems to care, So I'm
stuck with thunderbird for email which is always broken somewhere, and
xfce4 for a desktop. A generally usable solutiom but not ideal by a long
row of apple trees.
Hi Gene,
I have Debian running on a bunch of boxes, several of them with TDE.
If you're using standard Debian and TDE packages you're welcome to send
me your problematic /etc/apt/ and dpkg -l and I'll put them on a test box
and see if I can figure out how to get TDE running on your Debian.
But if you're using non-standard packages, or obsolete packages, or a lot
of pinning then sorry, I can't help you.
