But it's the only way to run Natty.
Sigh.
Looks like a bunch of packages are now tde* instead of kde3* ... The apt-get
update/dist-upgrade fails with lots of stuff like this:
tdebase-trinity : Depends: tdebase-trinity-bin (>= 4:3.5.14-0ubuntu0+r407+pr8~natty)
but it is not installed
Depends: tdebase-data-trinity (>= 4:3.5.14-0ubuntu0+r407+pr8~natty)
but it is not installed
Depends: tdebase-kio-plugins-trinity (>=
4:3.5.14-0ubuntu0+r407+pr8~natty) but it is not installed
Depends: tdeprint-trinity (>= 4:3.5.14-0ubuntu0+r407+pr8~natty) but
it is not installed
Depends: twin-trinity (>= 4:3.5.14-0ubuntu0+r407+pr8~natty) but it
is not installed
Recommends: tdebase-runtime-data-common-trinity but it is not
installed
I tried to install all that I could see that was missing:
sudo apt-get install tdelibs4c2a-trinity tdelibs-data-trinity libtdepim1a-trinity
tdebase-data-trinity tdebase-trinity-bin tdeprint-trinity tdebase-kio-plugins-trinity
twin-trinity tdebase-runtime-data-common-trinity

Naturally, TDE won't load after a reboot so I'm stuck in Gnome hell ...
Help?
Surely it's just a matter of removing X and installing Y, but what do those variables
resolve to?

Since it's not close enough to a 3.5.14 release, it may or may not work.
Purge ALL of the TDE packages (don't just remove them); this is done with
"apt-get remove (somepackage) --purge". That'll get rid of all of the old
config files that could interfere.
Next, make sure that the directory /opt/trinity/ is completely removed.
Finally, install the nightly build.

Wellll ... There are only two tde pkgs installed, and one looks like it's not
completely there:
ii tde-ubuntu-integration 0.1-0 TDE
Ubuntu Integration
iU tdebase-trinity 4:3.5.14-0ubuntu0+r407+pr8~natty
base components from the official KDE release
When I try to remove them, I get the same dependency messages.
Ugh.

All true and I knew (mostly) what I was getting into ... but ... I've been using them
daily for over a month and have had *very* few issues. And by "using them", I
mean that this is my workstation at work. I do admit that I don't update daily.
Printer driver issues, some goofiness with HALD, and now this have been the only issues,
really, oh, and some screen rendering problems. Otherwise, it's pretty solid.
Yes, this is intended as a compliment! :-)

Kristopher is correct. You were using the nightly builds in the months
leading up to a new release; once development begins again (as it has) the
nightly builds can be expected to eat your cat and other such nastiness.
I would NOT use them on any system (I don't either) during the initial
migration and rename process. I only install them on test machines that
are not used for any other purpose, and they are only available in the
first place for that purpose (i.e. accelerating the development process).
Be warned. :-)

don't have a spare computer.
Definitely avoid nightly builds for situations where stability is needed ;-)
