I'm a long-time TDE user who just updated to the final TDE 14.0.8 from
the 14.0.8 development version. I'm using a Debian sid version with
kernel 5.6.0-7.1-liquorix-amd64 which has been working well. The update
went well and everything appears to be working fine (not too surprised
there as the development versions were good) but there is an issue at
startup.
There are 3 notices that come up that indicate the r4-xdg-update script
has not completed successfully. I've restarted about 6 or 7 times but it
hasn't gone away.
It says
"error code 9
Common failures include file and directory permissions"
The file "r14-xgd-update-validation-test9.txt" contains the text below
<Filename>kde-kpdf_part.desktop</Filename>
<Filename>kde-ksensors.desktop</Filename>
<Filename>kde-ksensors.desktop</Filename>
<Filename>kde-superkaramba.desktop</Filename>
<Filename>kde-fsview.desktop</Filename>
<Filename>kde-kbiff.desktop</Filename>
<Filename>kde-kbiff.desktop</Filename>
<Filename>kde-kpdf_part.desktop</Filename>
I'm not sure exactly how to proceed but expect the solution is some
relatively simple editing of some TDE configuration files. Please advise.
Thank you in advance for any assistance rendered.

Hi L.,
yes problems with test 9 are sort of expected, as we wrote in the release notes as well.
Thanks for getting in touch.
Check the following file "~/.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit.menu" and
check the contents of the
"~/.local/share/applications" folder. I think it is possible/likely you have
both "kde-*.desktop" and "tde-*.desktop"
files for the ones listed in your email. For example 'kde-kbiff.desktop' and
'tde-kbiff.desktop'.
To fix this problem you can rename kde-* files to tde-* files and edit
"~/.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit.menu"
so to rename or remove any reference like
"<Filename>kde-*.desktop</Filename>".
Depending on your edit history and system setup, the same file could be names in many
different sections, mostly
"includes" and "excludes" ones, so you need to be sure to see where
the file is required.
The starting scripts automatically does the rename in case it is safe to do so, otherwise
it fails and requires user
intervention to avoid messing things up, as in your case.
Let us know how it goes and if you need more support.
Cheers
Michele

Well, I do not have the OP's problem. But I was curious.

I should have no KDE4 / KDE5 stuff installed. This machine was built
with a Trinty Ubuntu 16.04 installation DVD -- maybe 3+ years ago.
I can't think of installing any "off brand" programs that pulled in any

A curiosity. But, I will let sleeping dogs lie. :-)

Has anybody yet come up with a quick fix for this bug? or even a slow
fix? I have read all the comments in this thread, and also follow Michele
Calgaro's instructions about changing the lines (from kde to tde) in that
file:
~/.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit.menu
However, when I reboot, I still get the same error messages.
I am running Devuan Ascii (= Debian Stretch), and I have purged all other
desktops and their spawn, notably KDE4 and KDE5. As much as possible, I
am running pure TDE right now, except for some pan-Linux items that do
not bring in KDE dependencies, etc.
It is not a big problem; only a slight annoyance that I can live with
until it gets resolved. But now I am spoilt, as I am used to TDE working
without a hitch. Everything else works fine, no problems.
On the bright side: a slightly buggy TDE is still ten thousand times
better than any other desktop out there.

The error message only comes up when I boot into the Trinity Desktop,
but before I have any tools with which to capture a screenshot, or even
to copy the text. I would have to take a photo with my phone, then
transfer that to my desktop, etc.

Maybe you missed some KDE5 (or even KDE4) bit when you were
uninstalling things?

Are the menu entries still flagged if you delete then recreate them?
Here are some suggestions of last resort:
The hacky fix is to trick the script into thinking that it's already run to
completion by editing ~/.trinity/share/config/kdeglobals. The section you
want would look like this:
[R14 XDG Updates]
Updated=false
Version=201412270
Flip the "Updated" key to "true" and the script shouldn't fire
again until you
update TDE and it installs a new version of the script.
The even hackier fix is to edit starttde and prevent the script from running
at all.
Don't do either of these if you care about the minor housekeeping
fixes the script makes. They are not the "correct" answer, just a way of
getting the script to shut up if everything else fails.

Late commer, sorry for any redundancies,pendantic remarks. Debian stable (10) + TDE 14.0.8
(stable) afaikt:
Not a fan of installing Trinity from live cd's of some one elses making. My canonical
install distro ofchoice without Xinstalled (gui). Add TDE sources . No chance of
mistakesby others, Yikes.
Purging everything re KDE, does not ouch the home directory. If you are like me my home
directory lives on a separate hard drive through numerous installs of Trinity. Trinity
changed all references from "K"to "T" long ago. I had some issues with
kmail.
Retiring my work station, moved to a laptop, added a fresh user, clean home dir, TDE14.0.8
is the
best yet.

So far, the netinstall Devuan CD works best for me, but it doesn't offer TDE

Other options to install TDE from a CD or DVD have been found wanting:
ExeGnuLinux, Q4OS and others have been tested, but in one way or another they
all misbehave or fall short of my expectations.
My Christmas wish for this year is the same as last year (if Santa reads the
mailing list); which is a Devuan netinstall CD with TDE offered as a default
choice.
There are ways TDE could be installed using the netinstall CD, but it would
require my adding the sources.list manually, from the command-line; or, I
could specify the location of my own TDE packages, but my present setup would
make that option too cumbersome. So for now, I install using Mate, and
install TDE (as well as Open Office) from within Mate, which is the least
irksome of other DEs.
In any case, I can put up with a few minor bugs or issues, as I could never
have kept patience with using another desktop. And if I had to keep using the
newer KDE Plasma krap, I would probably have given up on using computers
altogether, and instead I would now be living in a cave somewhere up in the
mountains.

The hacky fix is to trick the script into thinking that it's already
run to completion by editing ~/.trinity/share/config/kdeglobals. The
section you want would look like this:
[R14 XDG Updates]
Updated=false
Version=201412270
Flip the "Updated" key to "true" and the script shouldn't fire
again
until you update TDE and it installs a new version of the script.
The even hackier fix is to edit starttde and prevent the script from
running at all.
Don't do either of these if you care about the minor housekeeping
fixes the script makes. They are not the "correct" answer, just a way
of getting the script to shut up if everything else fails.

The only real bother is why something would overwrite
my changes with KDE again. If that is not a security issue,
then I suppose that I can live with the bug.
Thanks for everybody's observations and suggestions.
Hi Bill,
what version of TDE are you using? If you are using a version before R14.0.8, that fix to
change to tde-* would
probably not work fine and wouldn't be surprised you get kde-* entries back in the
file when you edit the TDE menu.

So, I have a new detail to report. I rebooted my system, but before I did, I
checked those files:
/home/<USER>/.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit
/var/tmp/tdecache-<USER>/r14-xdg-update-validation-test9.txt
And everything seemed correct (that is, there were no kde items). In the first
file, the menu list, tde was in the <include> category, and kde was among
the <exclude> items. When I rebooted, I checked again, and everything had
been changed back to kde in the second file (r14-xdg), and I got those same 3
error messages again.
I did, however, find a separate menu for both gnome and kde.
Earlier (before a previous reboot) I had tried removing a kde menu, and the
system rebooted about the same as usual, but when I got up and running, my
konqueror and kedit were both all messed up. (* I set them to start up when
the system boots, because I use them both to organize my work; but this is
too complicated to explain. Enough to say, I have been doing it like this
since early KDE3 days, about 2006 or so, and it has always worked great, and
I don't want to change....)
Out of these known factors, I would suppose that something overwrites this
file with kde krap between shutdown and boot, but I don't have a clue how to
go about searching for the culprit. All KDE and Gnome stuff have been
removed; everything is TDE, except for a few pan-Linux applications, but
these do not bring in any KDE or Gnome dependencies, and should not affect
the desktop; or so I like to think.
Any further observations or suggestions, how I my track down the cause of
these changes? Thanks for any help!
Bill

Hi L.,

Check the following file
"~/.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit.menu" and check the contents
of the "~/.local/share/applications" folder. I think it is
possible/likely you have both "kde-*.desktop" and "tde-*.desktop"
files
for the ones listed in your email. For example 'kde-kbiff.desktop' and
'tde-kbiff.desktop'.
To fix this problem you can rename kde-* files to tde-* files and edit
"~/.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit.menu" so to rename or remove
any reference like "<Filename>kde-*.desktop</Filename>".
Depending on your edit history and system setup, the same file could be
names in many different sections, mostly "includes" and "excludes"
ones, so you need to be sure to see where the file is required.
The starting scripts automatically does the rename in case it is safe
to do so, otherwise it fails and requires user intervention to avoid
messing things up, as in your case.
Let us know how it goes and if you need more support.
Hi,
I just did 'zypper dup -r trinity-noarch -r trinity-x86_64' on my OpenSuSE
system, and this is happening to me now, too. I have a few more questions
about doing this cleanup:
Should I presume that entries in the <Exclude> sections do not have to be
adjusted?
Should the kde-*.desktop entries be renamed or removed from the
<layout>...<merge type=* /> sections as well?
Does the conversion routine look through all subdirectories of
my /home/<user> directory for menu files, and process files other than
applications-tdemenuedit.menu? If so, ought I to remove various legacy and
backup files?. Also, I have some subdirectories with backups of various
configuration files from other user accounts; will it scan these as well and
fail, even though they're not used by my account?
Here's the tree of these files:
$ tree -fia|grep menuedit
./.config/menus/applications-kmenuedit.menu
./.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit.menu
./.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit.menu.backup
./Documents/mail/older/share/config/kmenueditrc
./.kde/share/config/kmenueditrc
./rootHome/.config/menus/applications-kmenuedit.menu
./rootHome/.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit.menu
./rootHome/.kde/share/config/kmenueditrc
./rootHome/.trinity/share/apps/RecentDocuments/applications-tdemenuedit.menu.desktop

./tdemenuedit.txt
./.trinity/share/apps/kmenuedit

Hi Leslie,
see comments below.
Should I presume that entries in the <Exclude>
sections do not have to be adjusted?
Items in <Exclude> are usually items that
have been manually edited and/or moved to different submenu groups.
Whether you need to remove them or not depends on your menu, I can't tell you exactly.
In any case, test9 will
consider those lines too.
Should the kde-*.desktop entries be renamed or removed from the
<layout>...<merge type=* /> sections as well?
Same answer here, depends
on your file. but again any kde-* entry will be considered.

process files other than applications-tdemenuedit.menu? If so, ought I to remove various

Rename
routine and test9 is specific for this file
"$USER_DIR/.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit.menu". It will
not look into subdirs and backup files.
Hope this help.

Michele,
thanks for the tip; your instructions were clear and helpful. Here is my
feedback as it may also be helpful to others with the same problem..
There was nothing odd (no kde* files) in the "~/.local/share
/applications" folder
I searched with kwrite in the
"~/.config/menus/applications-tdemenuedit.menu" file for "kde" and
substituted "tde" in all "desktop" hits, i.e., the files named in the
r14 script output noted earlier. Some occurred more than once as I had
copies in various submenus. Saved the file, rebooted, there was one
notice of a check, rebooted, DONE! Everything seems to work fine now,
including the apps where the "tde" substitution was carried out.
My installation is over 5 years old and has been through a number of
upgrades so it is not surprising that there is some cruft in the setup.
However, it has always worked well. Long live TDE!
Sincerely,
L. McCarty

Hi Stefan It says
"error code 9
Common failures include file and directory permissions"
The file "r14-xgd-update-validation-test9.txt" contains the text
below <Filename>kde-kpdf_part.desktop</Filename>
<Filename>kde-ksensors.desktop</Filename>
<Filename>kde-ksensors.desktop</Filename>
<Filename>kde-superkaramba.desktop</Filename>
<Filename>kde-fsview.desktop</Filename>

<Filename>kde-kpdf_part.desktop</Filename>
I'm not sure exactly how to proceed but expect the solution is
some relatively simple editing of some TDE configuration files.
Please advise.
I encountered the same issue, see also this thread (r14-xdg-update
script error when TDM is starting TDE, 30.3.2020):

HTH, kind regards,
Stefan automatic file renaming has been added to the
script if there is no
collision. If there is a collision, manual intervention from the user
is required, as Michele mentioned in a previous email.
Yes, thanks for the hint. This was also the result of the other
r14-xdg-update thread and the reason I referred to it.
Kind regards,
Stefan
