Is that o. k.?
A longer answer :-), you can check what will happen when you install or remove a
page with 'apt-cache depends' & apt-cache rdepends'
~#apt-cache depends kde-trinity
kde-trinity
Depends: kde-core-trinity
Depends: kdeedu-trinity
Depends: kdegames-trinity
Depends: kdetoys-trinity
Depends: kdeaccessibility-trinity
Depends: kdeaddons-trinity

Depends: kdemultimedia-trinity
Depends: kdenetwork-trinity
Depends: kdepim-trinity
Depends: kdeutils-trinity
Depends: kdewebdev-trinity
Depends: desktop-base-trinity
Suggests: <kde-i18n-trinity>
Suggests: <x-window-system-core>
xorg
Suggests: kdesudo-trinity
Suggests: debian-kgtk-trinity
~$apt-cache rdepends kde-trinity
kde-trinity
Reverse Depends:
desktop-base-trinity
You are dealing with 'meta -packages' which help with installs but don't
remove
anything when you remove them.

I use it on my test machines (several dedicated to Ark Linux, Yoper,
Unity &trinity testing).
But on my laptop and primary machines, I use Ark Linux 2008.1 which
uses KDE 3.5.10.
We are hoping to port Trinity to the newest ISO once we get the basics set up.
Hope that helps,
Kate

This is currently unknown but is expected to be upwards of 1000 users
based on download volume from one of the mirror sites. An unofficial goal
of 3.5.13 is to get better statistics/tracking into place so that we can
get a better estimate of this number.

I really think we can only have rough estimates about that kind of information.
Even the
Debian project cannot count the number of installed distros:
1 iso download=1, 10, ..., N installations?
1 aptitude update/upgrade = 1, 10, ..., N upgrades (via apt-cacher)?
In fact this is a really difficult question to ask. Of course, with better tracking
tools, the estimations will become more precise or cover particular topics, but still...
Tools such as "The Linux Counter" (http://counter.li.org/) also exist but
require at least
a manual intervention (then a script can be used). Debian also have a package popularity
contest (http://popcon.debian.org/), etc. and all of these things are really fun indeed!
Go on Trinity, tell us how much you're popular!
