Hey Gene, if it's not finding libtdecore, it's game over, that's why it's not working. You can symlink a lib64 to the lib directory as a workaround for now until you get your packages in sync or whatever the cause of this is.

cd /opt/trinity
ln -s lib lib64

Nope. I don't allow an ssh login anyplace on my home network as root.
That  makes  moving stuff that needs root a 2 step process, but thats
ok, mc can handle both steps, just takes two sessions to do it.
