Hello,
As a Mageia 2 user, I found annoying not to have any usable TDE version.
So, I built myself some TDE packages for Mageia 2.
These are based on the Redhat packages, which were slightly updated to
work on Mageia.
For end-user, it means that TDE is already very usable, since it has all
updates that Fedora/RHEL already has.
For maintainer (me, I guess), it's now possible to build TDE for all
RHEL/Fedora/Mageia distributions with an unique procedure.
I guess that adding support for Mandriva 2011 will be easy too, since
these distributions are very close.
For now, I've built tdebase only.
To install it on Mageia 2 (x86_64 only, no i386):
First, add the repositories:
urpmi.addmedia tde-3.5.13-x86_64
http://trinity.mangafrance.com/mga2/trinity-3.5.13/RPMS/x86_64/
urpmi.addmedia tde-3.5.13-noarch
http://trinity.mangafrance.com/mga2/trinity-3.5.13/RPMS/noarch/
urpmi.addmedia tde-extras-x86_64
http://trinity.mangafrance.com/mga2/trinity-extras/RPMS/x86_64/
Then, install the tdebase package:
urpmi trinity-tdebase
And there you go. You should be able to choose a new "TDE" se
ssssion in your favorite DM (GDM, KDM, or anything else).

Thank you Francois,
Unfortunately I get the following error....
[root@localhost richard]# urpmi trinity-tdebase
A requested package cannot be installed:
lib64esound0-0.2.41-3mdv2010.1.x86_64 (due to unsatisfied libaudiofile.so.0()
(64bit))
I'm running a fully updated Mageia2 with all repos active (i.e. test and
backports)
Are there any plans for tdewebdev (Quanta) to be packaged? It's the one killer
app that KDE4 lacks for me.

Hello, missing packages are likely old packages from Mandriva (My
computer was installed on Mandriva 2010.2 then upgraded to MGA1 then to
MGA2).
You can still download 2010.2 packages from Mandriva mirrors, for example:
ftp://ftp.free.fr/mirrors/ftp.mandriva.com/MandrivaLinux/official/2010.2/x8…
BTW I've just added this package the "trinity-extras" repository. You
can do a "urpmi.update -a" then try to install again if you do not want
to install manually (hope there is no more missing dependencies).
And yes I intend to build the whole TDE stuff on MGA2, so tdewebdev will
follow soon.

I updated urpmi and got a missing htdig so I installed the MDV2010 one and
it's just finished installing. I did get some invalid signatures flagged up on
the MDV packages but everything else seems to have gone well. I'll do some
testing and report back for you.

Brilliant, thank you so much.
I'm running Quanta under KDE4 on this machine because I do prefer KDE4 to
KDE-3.5/Trinity.
However before I get shot down in flames, I do use KDE-3.5 on three other
machines, principally my Asus EeePCs, as it is much quicker on these low
powered machines than KDE4.
I have built my own distribution for the EeePC that runs in compressed mode
(Like a live CD but with persistant changes) and KDE4 is just too hungry and
will not run for me so I am using KDE-3.5.
I'm looking to update this to a newer version, probably based on
Mandriva/Rosa, so I will find your SRPMs invaluable to build a 32bit version.

repackaging the RedHat/Fedora packages but have not been successful. (I'm not
much of a packager but I can sometimes manage to bodge my way through with
someone elses SRPMs.)
I've installed Francois' packages on this machine and have booted into Trinity
to see that it works but started to have problems immediately with kmail
trying to convert my mailbox and ktorrent upset so shut it down and went back
to KDE4. I will try when I get some time, to try it with a new user.
I will definitely be trying it on my netbooks when Francois' SRPMs are

Users of the Mageia 2 repository can now use "urpmi trinity-desktop" to
install all the required components to run Trinity.
I will now add support for Mandriva 2011. It should not be very
difficult since it's very close to Mageia 2.
Then I will build the applications for both MGA2 and MDV2011.
