Should this be:
deb http://mirror.xcer.cz/trinity-sb trusty deps-r14 main-r14 deb-src http://mirror.xcer.cz/trinity-sb trusty deps-r14 main-r14
for Linux Mint 17?
Thanks, Lisi
P.S. Yes, I know I could suck it and see, but I am struggling so much with being unable to see the awful MATE that I want to make as few errors as possible while trying to render Mint visible - and therefore usable.
Yes, Mint 17 is based on Ubuntu Trusty, so given APT sources should work correctly.
I have been struggling with the awful Linux Mint and MATE ever since. I felt that I must move beyond my comfort zone. Debian and TDE is so easy and so familiar. So for my new box for playing streaming media on my television I installed Linux Mint 17 with Mate.
I have made myself give it a fair chance. But I can stand it no longer. So I bit the bullet, edited my sources.list, updated and tried to install TDE 14.
This is the result:
<quote> The following packages have unmet dependencies: tdeprint-trinity : Conflicts: foomatic-db-compressed-ppds but 20140410-0ubuntu1 is installed. The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

Help!!
I hope that I have copied and pasted enough. As I say, I am struggling. Mate, anyhow in its Linux Mint version, is almost invisible. (To me, at any rate. But I can't use anyone else's eyes. ;-) )
I could, of course, simply wipe the lot and install my beloved Wheezy and TDE 3.13.2.2. But that would be defeatist.
Thanks, Lisi
To return to the beginning of issues:
Definition of conflict with foomatic-db-compressed-ppds I see as a big problem. Many other DE has it as a dependency and TDE because of this makes it quite complicated concurrent installation with another DE.
If I understand well, the only effect is that with this package does not work the setup printer queue in TDE Control Center? However, the user can still set up the printer using the CUPS web interface. It is really useful to define this conflict package?
