Hi Francois, a user on the mastodon channel was trying to install TDE on PCLinuxOS following the instructions on the TDE site (https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/PCLinuxOS_Trinity_Repository_Installation_In...).
Step 2 fails complaining that the pkglist file can not be fecthed, but it is indeed reachable from a web browser. (Failed to fetch http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/rpm/pclinuxos/trinity-r14/RPMS/... 404 Not Found)
I did a quick test in a VM and I can replicate the issue. Maybe something is wrong with the contents of the file? Are you able to take a look? Thanks and Merry Christmas. Cheers Michele

Hello,
I think this is the same curl issue as seen on Mageia. Using 'wget' to retrieve the file works fine, but using 'curl' without option fails. There is probably a way to configure apt-get downloader options, but I don't know them.

Hello, Finally, I found this was not a curl issue, but the repository metadata were incomplete. This happened because of a syntax change in 'genbasedir' command. I've updated the metadata with correct command and now it looks like it is working.

Thanks for the update Francois and Happy New Year to you and all the mailing list :-) Cheers Michele
I did email earlier of the issue. There is also another way of installing by adding trinity to the sections section of synaptic as textstar added the repo use the nluug server if that's possible Alie On Sunday, 31 December 2023 at 09:38:00 GMT, François Andriot via tde-users users@trinitydesktop.org wrote:
