In Ubuntu/TDE there is a `kate` and a `kate-trinity`.
However, there is no `kwrite-trinity`.
I'm always afraid to install some k-something-or-the-other` -- without a -trinity suffix and end up thereby with a $##t-pot-full of KDE 4 or KDE 5 crap.
That happened to me several Ubuntu's ago....
It appears the `kwrite` I just installed runs Just Fine in TDE 14.0.5
How is a person to know what to install besides doing an `apt-cache search k-something-or-the-other` for every kabc...xyz?
Even more confusion..... I just (apt-get) installed kiconedit-trinty and khexedit-trinity.
After the install was finished there was no kiconedit: $ kiconedit The program 'kiconedit' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt install kiconedit
huh?!?!? But, I did find that there was a `tdeiconedit`. So now I believe I will put a symlink for `kiconedit` in my $HOME/bin/...
I do not believe I wanted to install simple 'kiconedit'......
However, khexedit was installed Just Fine.

On my system, Devuan ascii and TDE R14.0.5 kwrite is in package kate-trinity:
$ dpkg -S /opt/trinity/bin/kwrite kate-trinity: /opt/trinity/bin/kwrite
There is also kwrite in the repositories but that is from kde5 as you can see from its dependencies:
$ apt-cache depends kwrite kwrite Depends: ktexteditor-katepart Depends: libc6 Depends: libkf5activities5 Depends: libkf5configcore5 Depends: libkf5configgui5 Depends: libkf5configwidgets5 Depends: libkf5coreaddons5 Depends: libkf5crash5 Depends: libkf5dbusaddons5 Depends: libkf5i18n5 Depends: libkf5parts5 Depends: libkf5texteditor5 Depends: libkf5widgetsaddons5 Depends: libkf5xmlgui5 Depends: libqt5core5a Depends: libqt5gui5 Depends: libqt5widgets5 Depends: libstdc++6
If you search for "iconedit" you find two packages, one of which is a dummy package with the original kde name:
$ aptitude search "?name(iconedit)" p kiconedit-trinity - Transitional dummy package. This can be safely removed after your TDE upgrade has completed. p tdeiconedit-trinity - an icon editor for Trinity
There are quite a lot of these transitional dummy packages. I think renaming the TDE programs was intended to be a step away from the confusion with kde5 names, but as it wasn't accomplished yet there are three possibilities now.
However, installing the dummy package is not a mistake, it just installs the tde one as its sole dependency.
If I am to install something and I'm not 100% sure if it's the right TDE package I check against a possible kde5 version and a dummy package.
But, I did find that there was a `tdeiconedit`. So now I believe I will put a symlink for `kiconedit` in my $HOME/bin/...
I would better like an alias: alias kiconedit=tdeiconedit # in your .bashrc or .bash_aliases
Hope this helps.
Kind regards, Stefan
