Cool, for the archives,\
I noticed after my "dirmngr" repone that it is a part of the "intallation
instructions", havee not read them in some time :-)
The instruction to install the key ( keys.gnupg.net keyserver) worked here on
a new base + standard, thankfull for interent search.

Thanks - I had already installed dirmngr . Still couldn't get the GPG key.
After a bit of googling I found a similar issue where the solution offered
was to ping keys.gnupg.net and then to replace keys.gnupg.net with the IP
address identified in the ping output when using the apt-key adv command.
This worked for me - although I am not entirely sure why. I presume that
some GPG related package was not included in the Debian base+standard utils
install.
Trinity desktop now installed and running

I had to intall "dirmngr" to get "apt-key" to work. It is not part
of
base + standard utils tasks.
"apt install dirmngr"

The simple answer, there is no duplications, TDE adds only Trinity
apps.
Installing Debian there is the option to not install a DE during the
install. I install "base + standard" then follow the directions on
the wiki.
I have standarized on TDE so having only one DE is my preference. I
add non Trinity apps (+depends) as needed.

Thanks Greg,
Your suggestion as to how to install Debian worked.
Because I installed Stretch I had to follow the wiki page
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Preliminary_Stable_Builds
Adding the repos to the sources list went fine but now I am stuck on
trying to install the GPG key - I keep getting "connection refused"
from keys.gnupg.net keyserver.
