I made a migration from Debian Bullseye to Bookworm.
At reboot, the desktop tde doesn't open.
Synaptic tells me that they are broken tde-trinity packages.
What to do to repair them ?
And impossible to uninstall and reinstall tde-trinity.
I upgraded 21 of my own Bullseye installations to Bookworm, mostly before Bookworm
was officially released last summer. I used only apt-get to do it, and only with
neither TDM nor TDE running. With apt-get here, "upgrade" was a two-step or
three-step basic process:
Preliminary:
1-adjust sources from Bullseye to Bookworm
2-apt-get clean
Upgrade:
1-apt-get update
2-apt-get upgrade
3-apt-get full-upgrade
or
1-apt-get update
2-apt-get full-upgrade
Follow-up:
1-apt-get autoremove
The three step process is useful when / filesystem space is limited. After step 2,
apt-get clean can purge the just installed .debs to free some disk space before
proceeding to finish the upgrade. Using the 3-step, step 2 won't upgrade all of
Trinity, which will usually complete in step 3, along with installation of new
kernel and several other packages initially held back.
It seems often the case that some Trinity packages get removed as part of step 2
of the 3-step, and step 3 doesn't put them all back, requiring that that be done
manually. If this latter is not done, Trinity crashing is possible. At this point,
none of mine crash.
