Sounds good enough. I have no plans to use Debian. All
I want is a
complete TDE install. Slackware is notably absent from the list of
distros offering anything close to a full TDE install. I hope to work
toward resolving that, but I need a full install to start comparing.
http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/rpm/
Debian, Devuan, Ubuntu, RedHat EL, Fedora, Mageia, openSUSE, PCLinuxOS
Second, I am interested in how much a full TDE
conflicts with a full
KDE. Slackware comes with a full KDE install.
Outside the menuing systems, zero. That's why KDE3 was, and TDE still remains,
installed to /opt/, necessary for KDE3 and KDE4 to both be installed on the same
system when KDE4 was originally provided in distro releases offering both, e.g.
openSUSE, where KDE3 is still available in optional repos for both Leap and TW.
The menu starter used may need customizing for availability if desired of both
Konsoles, both Konqs, both Kates, etc. regardless which DE is currently active.
I have no understanding /why/ there's any objection to TDE placement in /opt/.
