Thanks for the checklist of pkgs for minimal installation. It mostly resembles

Also, I am interested in running Devuan over Debian, because I am less than
enthusiastic about my systemd experience. It seems like systemd interferes
with certain operations.
I set out to learn Debian first, before trying Devuan; because I was used to
running the 'buntus, and unfamiliar with the differences in a Debian system.
Now that I've got Debian under control (except for systemd), I think maybe I'm
ready to go for Devuan. So if you can offer any advice about making the
switch, I would be most grateful.
Devuan repositories (including the onion links) are already in my
sources.list. And I now have a second computer, and more liberty to explore
and experiment.

This sounds like it could be a useful suggestion; do a minimal

Here is my personal check list to make sure that useful items get added
to a minimal install:
$ sudo apt-get install clipit axel aria2 aspell-da audacity ripperx
xarchiver desktop-base clipit cups gtkorphan gdebi pulseaudio
pavucontrol pepperflash wicd synaptic xcfa xorg
I use Devuan Jessie, which doesn't use systemd. The "desktop-base"
package are some Devuan goodies.
Hope the list helps.

This could be a *buntu problem. I am running TDE on various Debian
based
distributions as well as openSUSE, *with* KDE 4/5 apps (mostly
kdenlive) and
no such problem.
All of these problems could of course be avoided, regardless of distro,
by installing a base, mini, server (or whatever it is called) version.
After that, you just add the Trinity repos to the list that your
distribution uses.
