Re: [trinity-users] Installing Trinity on Squeeze: problem with recommends

Hello all :-) I am doing a fresh install of Trinity, on a fresh install of Debian Squeeze, which so far has no GUI installed. After I issue: aptitude install desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity I get a list of 165 recommends and the question: do you accept this solution? Well, I think that there are 165, but the first that I can currently see is number 147. Having dismally failed to find a way to see what I am being asked to agree to, I decided to accept all recommends, which might at least reduce the number of things on the screen and let me see what else, if anything, aptitude is telling me. (Oh, I do miss konsole!) So I did: aptitude -r install desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity That made no difference at all. Still a problem, still 165 recommends (as far as I can see), still: do you accept this solution? And I still don't know what "solution" it is recommending. It might be suggesting _removing_ 165 packages. So, in case I had gone bonkers and got the order wrong I tried: aptitude install -r desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity Same result. :-( I am fresh out of ideas. I have had enough physical problems building this computer, without software problems as well. :-( Help!
