Nope. Nothing was installed from that repo (yet), and now it's disabled,

I did make the arrangements so that I could create a built-root for Beowulf
and test how it is with the network-manager package.
I can confirm that network-manager does contain a dependency on
libpam-systemd. However, it is clear that this dependency can be met by
installing the libpam-elogind package. To my surprise, libpam-elogind
reported a missing dependency because the required libelogind0 package
conflicted with the installed libsystemd0. After replacing libsystemd0
with libelogind0, it was possible to continue.
Note: For just such cases, I use aptitude in interactive mode, because
everything can be elegantly found and solved there.

I don't normally use aptitude or other tools like it (synaptic, etc.). Since I
started using apt-get, I have quite forgotten how they even work. But I
suppose I could give it a try.
libelogind0

Hi Nik! Thanks for your help.
Buster is named only for some oddball third-party stuff; except,
that is, for Trinity-TDE repos themselves (for which, see below).
deb-multimedia repos (for ? I forget)
Ok. That is most likely your troublemaker. You'll need to get rid of
all packages from that repo - that will cause some TDE packags to be
removed, too, due to dependencies. Identify one of the deb-multimedia
packages, then use "apt-show-versions" (most likely you'll need to
install it first) and grep for the extensions. This is a tediouse
process, I've been through it a couple of times. The only thing you
maybe miss is libdvdcss2. I think I installed it from the sources.

Okay, so that did work, and I now have network-manager-tde and
network-manager, so that's great.
Now, on the down side, gufw was removed, which leaves me without a gui
firewall. (There was an earlier discussion about this matter, firestarter
being replaced by gufw.
gufw : Depends: gir1.2-webkit-3.0 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I could stick with just plain ufw, but as I explained, I want to see my
connections in real time.)
Two steps forward, one step back.
Bill
