Hello
I am not even sure which trinity version I have installed but it must be a couple of years old (still running Kubuntu 10.04). I would like to purge it before try to install 3.5.13
However
Sudo dpkg -l | grep trinity
does not show anything
sudo dpkg -l | grep kubutu-desktop
Show
kubuntu-desktop-kde3 1:10
Any advice how to proceed?
thanks

Try: sudo dpkg -l | grep kde3
The older versions used a -kde3 suffix.

Thanks I found out that I am using still 3.5.11.
How can I purge the complete installation in order to have clean install of 3.5.13?
I tried out
sudo apt-get purge kubuntu-desktop-kde3 kubuntu-default-setting-kde3 but it does not purge the whole trinity 3.5.11.
What was the command I used to install 3.5.11, which had all sort of dependencies. I googled around and could not find any instructions anymore.

BTW, Tim why don't you use pgpmime instead of inline

Try something like: $ KDE_PACKAGES=`dpkg -l|grep kde|grep -E ^ii|cut -d' ' -f2-3` $ echo $KDE_PACKAGES # to check if packeges were found $ dpkg -r $KDE_PACKAGES
good luck Gerhard

Thanks but that gave an error with various packages.
I think I will re install everything from scratch.

When did the error occur? After the first, second or third command? What is the contents of the Variable $KDE_PACKAGES, written out on the second line? Are the kde programs correctly detected?
Isn't there a more detailed error message e.g. about dependencies thus you can not delete some packages? Can you remove the packages from $KDE_PACKAGES one by one on commandline? You might have to investigate a bit by yourself.

right, I lost my patience and installed everything from scratch.
And I found a bug which i will report in my next mail.

A graphical way: Open the Control Center, it should appear there (at least it does in pre-v14.0.0, but I assume it is something that was always there from the KDE days). Or open the "About Trinity" from the help menu of Konqueror/Konsole/....

Ah, thanks this is very convenient.
It is 3.5.11 !
Now in these what where the essential commands to install it?
It cannot be
sudo apt-get install desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity
Because I don't trust apt-get dist-upgrade etc
I want to purge the old installation
BTW, is 3.5.13 still available?
Thanks
