My laptop upgraded fine but my wife's, which has
the same software load
except no development stuff, reported an error about XDG compatibility(?).
The error was three lines of text in a pop up window. I was unable to copy
them to present here. A filename was mentioned which was probably:
/var/tmp/tdecache-margaret/r14-xdg-update-validation-test6.txt
which contains:
Application=kde-amarok.desktop
Application=kde-amarok.desktop
Application=kde-amarok.desktop
Upon clicking "Okay" I was presented with another dozen or so lines of
text which mentioned error 6.
At the time this occured the relevant portion of the process tree looked
like this:
10177 ? Ss 0:00 /opt/trinity/bin/tdm
10184 tty7 Ssl+ 0:07 \_ /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg -br -deferglyphs
16 -nolisten tcp :0 vt7 -auth /var/run/xauth/A:0-uEKeQa
10390 ? S 0:00 \_ -:0
12358 ? Ss 0:00 \_ /bin/sh /opt/trinity/bin/starttde
12396 ? Ss
0:00 \_ /usr/bin/ssh-agent /opt/trinity/bin/starttde
12416 ? S 0:00 \_ sh /opt/trinity/bin/r14-xdg-update
12469 ? S 0:00 \_ xmessage -center -file -
This seems to be reproducible.
What should I do?
TIA

Hi Mike,
it means you have some entries named "Application=kde-*" in your
"$PROFILE_DIR/share/config/profilerc" file.
This should normally be renamed at the first restart after the warning message, but if not
you can simply edit the file
and rename kde-* to tde-*. Obviously make sure the corresponding files exists.
Having said all the above, Amarok desktop file in TDE is
/opt/trinity/share/applications/tde/amarok.desktop, *without*
the tde- prefix. Does your wife has amarok from KDE (4/5??) installed by any chance?
Extra info: the tests are performed by the script /opt/trinity/bin/r14-xdg-update. so you
can also see whaat is going by
looking at its content.
Cheers
Michele
