Help! Following what I thought was a routine upgrade of my Debian Jessie/Sid
system, Trinity has broken. Completely. Many programs have disappeared
from /opt/trinity/bin (most particularly kmail - I'm writing this on an old
backup system).
In an attempt to recover this, I have (I believe) downgraded the system to
Wheezy with the following /etc/apt/sources.list
------
deb
http://ftp.nz.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main non-free contrib
deb-src
http://ftp.nz.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main non-free contrib
deb
http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src
http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contrib non-free
### I tried both this set and the ones below
deb
http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/slavek-banko/axis/ubuntu wheezy
main
deb-src
http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/slavek-banko/axis/ubuntu
wheezy main
##deb
http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-v3.5.13/debian
wheezy main
##deb-src
http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-v3.5.13/debian
wheezy main
##deb
http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps-v3.5.1…
wheezy main
##deb-src
http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps-v3.5.1…
wheezy main

After that,
apt-get install desktop-base-trinity
appears to work. But
apt-get install kde-trinity
gives:
-----
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
kde-trinity : Depends: kde-core-trinity (>= 5:47) but it is not going to be
installed

Several questions:
What have I done wrong?! All suggestions welcome...
I tried to follow the instructions at
http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/DebianBinaryInsta…
Are they actually correct?
Has anyone else succeeded in a new or upgraded installation in the last couple
of days?
cheers
