So I tried setting it back to jessie, but all that got me was a sea of

Did you set up apt source for Preliminary Stable Builds? Here is the Release
file properly as it should be. See:

From the TDE installation instructions:
"TDE R14.0.4
For Stretch (Debian 9.x), although it is already released, currently there is
no official version of TDE available, although TDE runs smoothly in Stretch.
If you are interested in installing TDE in a Stretch environment, you can use
the preliminary packages for the next R14.0.5 release.
Please refer to the Preliminary Stable Builds page for further instructions."
I can confirm this works very well (at least three installs here on various
hardware)

I've tried a few times to install the stable builds from Jessie on
ascii/stretch and have failed. But have not tried using the source
packages yet and that's something to try for another day.
As Slavek has said the preliminary builds work swell.

Hi Mike,
the Preliminary Stable Builds repository has been created from its very
beginnings as completely independent on QuickBuild and the related
infrastructure. After all, the initial reason was to try to help during
outage of QuickBuild due to technical problems - see the emails from that
time:
http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::13246
http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::5901
Therefore, package creation - compilation - publishing, everything is done on
the infrastructure independent of QuickBuild. That is why Preliminary Stable
Build from the very beginning is not a part of the official primary Trinity
server. That's why the repository is signed with my gpg key instead of the
official Trinity gpg key.
At the same time there are side benefits. Preliminary Stable Builds provides
some additional architectures - mips, armhf also for Ubuntu. It is less
demanding to add support for new Debian / Ubuntu distributions.
Some time ago, I and Tim had agreed to place Preliminary Stable Builds
repository directly to the official Trinity redirector, which is under my
control - mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org. That's why Preliminary Stable Builds
repository is for the first time on more official location, although are
still being created independently on QuickBuild.
However, this does not mean that it would be a replacement for an official
repository. The final releases will continue to be prepared and published
using QuickBuild.
By this I wanted to clarify the historical context and current state.

at mirror.xcer.cz, colleague has not yet made the removal of distributions
that are no longer build for Preliminary Stable Builds. Therefore, packages
for these distributions are still available on mirror.xcer.cz. While on
mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org is cleaning old packages more actively. This is
why the content may vary. Both of these mirrors are synchronized from my main
server using apt-mirror. Therefore, removing old packages can be done
differently on each mirror.
If you want to synchronize Preliminary Stable Builds repository to your
mirror, I can setup rsync on mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org. Would it be
useful for you?
