Hi, the above mentioned edition is based on Debian Testing. Is there a Trinity version available?

Should be one on the mirrors; check trinity.pearsoncomputing.net for the latest.

If Trinity was in Debian Testing when Linux Mint did their Debian Edition, there is a good chance there is. It is entirely up to Linux Mint to decide to do a Trinity version, though another user can probably do a Trinity remaster.

Trinity is not supported by Debian mainstream at all (yet).
Never tried LMDE but from what I read the main attraction is the Mint menu (think it's Gnome) the rest is Debian Testing with some non-free and and modifications. So if you want Trinity rather than Gnome why not start with straight Debian?
The only live/installable builds I see for Trinity are kubuntu. As far as I know only myself has been doing live builds for Debian (exelinux_squeeze_trinity)
I can confirm that Trinity runs on todays Debian Testing, I did a live build this morning but so far only tested in a VM
As far as I can see there is nothing to stop a user from dist-upgrading Squeeze/Trinity to Wheezy (or Sid) at the moment, just don't do it in X. Or installing Trinity on a Wheezy base. That could change at any time though and it might be difficult or impossible to downgrade.

Probably most distros won't until the bugtracker is cleared (mostly) and rebranding is completed.

Some people like to contribute through testing or to see what's on the way.

Why only Kubuntu? There are people for which the *buntu's have never worked, myself included.

I'm sure a very experienced user could downgrade their system -- back in 2008 I managed to downgrade a fully up-to-date system by two years worth of software. Of course that's not going into 2.4 kernels, that's still 2.6.
I think, if we support a Debian build of TDE, that we should do it as cmake completes. I don't use Debian except as a backup partition due to a very buggy user interface (even when they supported KDE3), so I wouldn't be able to test.
Hi, I just managed to intall Trinity using the Squeeze directions.
Hi, after installing Triniy 3.5.12 I miss some german language files, especially the Main menu is still english. Which language files are needed?

apt-get (or aptitude) install kde-i18n-de-trinity
Hi David,
apt-get (or aptitude) install kde-i18n-de-trinity
thanks, now it works. I was astonished that this was not installed automatically, because other german language files were installed during Trinity installation.

Mint, Debian edition is 100% compatible with Debian Testsing, which as of now is Wheezy. The Trinity web site has install directions for Lenny & Squeeze.
You could try the Trinity Squeeze repos , Wheezy is still close (enough?) it could work.
Mints KDE version is 4.6.

Maybe once cmake is completed (or at least far enough in to build the TDE base), Tim can trigger a build against Debian Testing on the quickbuild system? That'd certainly fit: a version of TDE that is currently being tested installed on a version of Debian that is currently being tested, increase the chances of having a Wheezy-ready build when they go stable. We'll probably have several more releases before they do, but hey, could help, right?
