Hi! :-)
I tried to install TDE to my Devuan system (stable, Daedalus).
I gave (as root): "apt update", but I received a 404 error for the mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org (although I can reach it, via browser).
Additionally, I received the message that "the repository does not have a Release file".
Can someone confirm, that the repository is online and works as expected?
TIA!!! :-) Giorgos.

This is usually caused by a typo in your /etc/apt/sources.list or equivalent. Please post it here. See also:

Oh...I see! Anyway! The respective section of sources.list is:
deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-r14.1.3 daedalus main deps

That should be 14.1.x not 14.1.3

THANKS Mike!!! ;-) That did the trick.
Apt update and dist-upgrade (which updated the keyring) completed successfully. However "apt install tdebase-trinity", returned a bit of dependencies hell:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: luit: Breaks: x11-utils (<7.7+6) but 7.7+5 is to be installed.
Ehm...I think, I'm missing something here! :-) G.

This seems to be a Debian problem due to files moving between packages.

Probably you should just purge the luit package.
dpkg --purge luit
You may also want to reinstall x11-utils on top of itself to fix any breakage.
apt install --reinstall x11-utils

Ooops!!! I didn't find that bug. :-)
Correct! Now everything went flawlessly. THANKS AGAIN!!! G.
