Just wondering if anybody else has had problems with soundkonverter-trinity.
I installed the package and dependencies, and when I try to reinstall or
upgrade, both apt and aptitude tell me that it's already installed, and the
most recent version, etc. But when I try to run the program, I get an error
message (see attachment for screenshot).
TDEinit could not launch 'soundkonverter-trinity', could not find the
executable.
In the meanwhile, I've been using soundconverter, which is adequate for the
moment, but not what I want for regular use. TDE's soundkonverter-trinity
offers so many more options for fine adjustments, and sound quality is very
important to me, as music is my side hustle. ;-)
This is the only problem I've been having with TDE at the moment. By the way,
I am running Devuan Beowulf, and just ran upgrade, but I am told that
everything is current.
I would appreciate any help or suggestions here, as I use this program a lot.

Thanks, but I have only just sorted out the problem there. It seems that it is
not soundkonverter-trinity, but rather something to do with the Trinity menu.
Now soundkonverter is working again like normal.
Once I know more about the problem with the menu, I will report, if there is
anything worth telling.

soundkonverter-trinity.
It's working correctly here (0.3.8 from R14.0.9 development, on Debian 10)

Hi Bill,
although the package is called soundkonverter-trinity, the binary is called
only soundkonverter, ie without the suffix trinity.
Cheers

Yes, so I discovered. I had tried to create a way to use a run command as
soundkonverter-trinity; because in the past I had sometimes inadvertently
installed a KDE 4/5 component, so that the "other" soundkonverter got
installed instead of the Trinity version, along with other KDE krap, and then
I couldn't get rid of them.
That, I believe, is how my shortcut in the TDE menu got messed up. In any
case, I manage at present to avoid all KDE krap, and things are *almost* back
to normal for running this package.
Now I can run soundkonverter from the TDE menu; but if I use alt-F2 to run it,
then I must use the run command "/opt/trinity/bin/soundkonverter" -- which
works, but seems rather much. Otherwise, I get that same error message.
On a side note -- maybe this ought to be a new thread? -- is there a way to
restore the default settings for the TDE menu (or TDE menu editor)? I do not
want to go through a complete system reinstallation in order to achieve this,
but just to get the original TDE menu restored.

Timeshift or backintime would have been your friends.......
