Thanks Slávek. Thought I would give this a try . It did resolve mirror.xcer.cz but the
connection then timed out over 5 tries. Perhaps someone else might try this in case for
some reason my IP address is a factor ? Ping mirror.xcer.cz also failed. I do have a
working internet connection as ping google.ie (my country Google domain) was absolutely
fine with no packet loss

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.
Greg
Because problems with key servers availability are too common, I added the
axis-archive-keyring package to the apt repository - see the description
added on wiki.
Cheers

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

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
