Hi!
It's quite painless (compared to the constant itching KDE4 gave me):
- remove all KDE4 related packages
- remove nepomuk, plasma and akonadi, if they still are present (which was the
case wen I did the transition)
- install desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity as mentioned in the installation
notes.
- again remove all KDE4 related packages, as some are pulled in again. Check
for possible replacements frome trinity if needed.

I was a happy KDE3 user for years, but recently, as
part of upgrading
Debian I got KDE4. I've tried GNOME and various other desktop environments,
but I didn't find anything I liked. Recently someone debian-users mentioned
trinity on and it seems to be the desktop environment I'm looking for.
Before I try it out, I would like to know what pitfalls there are in
upgrading from KDE4 to Debian. The KDE3->KDE4 transition was a bit messy
and I think it's likely that KDE4 has messed up my old KDE3 configuration.
Has anyone else done this and what would they advise? Should I start from
scratch with a clean configuration or will it be OK to copy my existing
configuration?
