ah yes, kgtk-qt3-trinity (and related) are definitely not on my (Debian)

nor even configure sudo.

Do we
actually have a procedure written anywhere that results in
successful installation on Ubuntu? People have access to the Wiki and
I would be more than willing to redirect the Ubuntu/Debian install
instructions to a Wiki page until R14 is released; would someone who
has managed to install TDE successfully be willing to write a brief
set of instructions for the Wiki?
Hello
I have installed trinity successfully in Kubuntu 10.04 (and
will not try to upgrade to 12.04 till
http://www.trinitydesktop.org/installation.php#ubuntu
will add 12.04 officially.
The procedure was more complicated than I thought:
1. Problem sudo:
The workaround is to temporarily set a root password, install sudo-kde3,
then unset the root password. The following commands should do that:
1. sudo passwd
2. Enter a new (temporary) root password at the prompt
3. sudo apt-get install sudo-kde3
4. sudo passwd -l root
2. Problem: kdelibs problem
sudo dpkg -i --force-all
/var/cache/apt/archives/kdelibs-data-kde3_4%3a3.5.12-0ubuntu6+r1152788_all.
deb
3 Problem hhotnetsuffrc problem
sudo apt-get remove --purge khotnewstuffrc
4. Problem again kdelibs4c2a
sudo apt-get install kdelibs4c2a-kde3
sudo apt-get install kdelibs4c21-kde3 kdelibs-data-kde3
Problems with crashes GTK programs I have seen
only if I had installed
kgtk-qt3-trinity (and related), which replacing dialog boxes. But with
gtk-qt-engine-trinity, which only changes the appearance of gui widgets,
it does not fall.
Note: These problems apparently not related to the update 3.5.13.1.

This is a great piece of information. For month I was not able to use
* lazarus-ide
* dropbox
* calibre
as a normal user. The only work-arround was using 'sudo NAMEOFAPPLICATION'.
You saved my live! I've googled a lot to know what could be the culprit
without success. Uninstalling kgtk-qt3-trinity brought all back to normal.
What a big step forward!
kgtk-qt3-trinity should not be installed by default. Or there should be a big
warning on the www.trinitydesktop.org page!
