(YaST allows one to specify that debug packages should be installed with regular
packages.) I'm not sure why those particular debug packages didn't get
installed.

If you look into detail these seem to be debuginfo and debugsource
packages, which are correctly not pulled by default

This particular case seems to create a high 'astonishment factor' because

In my case, though, both appear to be installed, as I would expect
because I installed
via trinity-desktop-all (KonquerorPlugins6.png). Strangely, my package
manager shows several packages that are still not installed.
(KonquerorPlugins7.png). Ok, I'm convinced. I just purged
"ark-trinity" and the "compress"
submenu in konqueror is gone. I reinstalled it and it's there again.
On Devuan "konq-plugins-trinity" recommends "ark-trinity", so no
hard
dependecy. Is there a good reason for it not be a "depend" ?
I do not know details to why, but TDE aims to be modular and flexible.
For a newbie or an avg user it might be even too much (especially
compared to the newer and dumber Gnomes and KDEs approaches)
IMO these problems pop up if you do not install tde-trinity, which
usually pulls more then you would need, but makes installation complete
incl. all these details.
I personally prefer the flexibility as the desktop can be dedicated to
one purpose and can be easily maintained (updated)
