Greetings all;

I need the address line to put in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/TDE.list file to get TDE for a fresh bullseye install as I intend to update this stretch install on a fresh 500GB SSD sometime in the next couple weeks.

If its available for bullseye yet, if not and there is a showstopper, I'd appreciate knowing that too.

Thank you.

Cheers, Gene Heskett

https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Debian_Trinity_Repository_Installation_Inst ructions says this:

"Additionally, unofficial but well-trusted rolling builds are available for a broader set of versions, including 11.x bullseye and sid.

These are built and maintained by Sl�vek Banko.

Preliminary Stable Builds - rolling version of current stable branch

(maintenance releases) Preliminary Testing Builds - rolling version of main development branch (major/minor releases)"

And there is a link to https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Preliminary_Stable_Builds where the instructions are to configure apt, for example: deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-sb <your-distribution> deps-r14 main-r14 where <your-distribution> would be "bullseye" then.

I don't know anything about showstoppers, though. I still am on beowulf.

HTH

Kind regards, Stefan

Devuan Beowulf has been very stable for me; and now that the issue with ldap-heimdal-kerberos has been resolved (see other thread), everything works without a hitch. I will assume that Debian Buster is also pretty stable, although myself I have preferred to avoid the abominable systemd and stick with init on Devuan. (Devuan is now more Debian, philosophically speaking, than Debian itself.)

I don't know where Gene stands on that question of Debian systemd versus Devuan init, but I'll leave that to himself to decide. As a fellow cranky oldster, I don't care so much for change, and tend to stick with the tried-and-true (hint, hint) such as Devuan init.

The only possible "showstopper" that I would mention is that the wireless networking has changed slightly. Wherever this detail matters in your setup, remember that wlan0 in versions Jessie and earlier becomes wlx00027288d1fd for myself; I don't know if the characters following wlx are the same for everybody or just me, but you need to get that part right.

It was a big headache when I tried to upgrade to Ascii(=Stretch), and in fact I never did get wireless networking system with it, but kept falling back to Jessie until Jessie was no longer supported. It was a little messy upgrading straight from Jessie to Beowulf(=Buster) because I was skipping over Ascii/Stretch, but after a few weeks of ironing out the wrinkles, it runs better than Jessie ever did, and I've been running Beowulf with almost no issues since at least a year or more past.
