That does sound like a cogent explanation. And I agree. Its taken NM
over a decade to learn to leave a host file based network config alone.
There for several years I was searching it out and rm'ing it before the
installs reboot. Recently ahahi has been getting the same treatment. I
hate knowitall software. And I certainly appreciate the stability that
tde has brought to the table. My hat is off in a salute to you folks.
Thank you Slávek.

I thought it
unusual that this machine was not getting updates,
while the one machine tool machine I had tde installed on was. So I
looked at the repo list in synaptic and found the deb line for r14
had become unchecked. Checked it, and refreshed. That brought in
313 packages, or tried to, reporting that it wasn't successfull at
pulling them all. But when it had installed what it could, I then
did another refresh, but it then did not mark any more new ones. Ack
the log, the server hung up on me.
Since I was then about 110 days of uptime and that many updates it
needed to restart the dbus apache2 and tdm kin. I checked them,
clicked fwd and was greeted by a bash login on tty1. Logged in and
did a sudo reboot. A bit slower than I recall, but but a lot was
changed and things seem to be running ok now.
But I am left with a suspicion I might not be pulling from the
latest mirror. ISTR it was moved several months back, so would
someone be kind enough to paste the latest repo line to me?
Thanks a bunch.

It has been a long time since the layout was changed on the primary
archive. As a result, the addresses for the repositories have changed.
In any case, the addresses are preserved there and automatic redirects
are set up so that the previous addresses in the apt sources lists are
still functional.
If you have apt sources for Trinity set up using the
trinity-apt-archive package, then your addresses have been
automatically updated in your sources lists. But it is possible that
Synaptic then considered them as new addresses and turned them off by
default. I don't like these programs that change the configuration on
their own :(
