The smoothest upgrade would be from 3.5.11->3.5.12->3.5.13. Upgrading straight to 3.5.13 would involve removing large amounts of TDE packages, then reinstalling them manually due to the name change from *-kde3 to *-trinity.
Thanks for the quick response, Tim!
But, can you help me with the "somehow" part? I can't find a ppa for v3.5.12. There seems to be no equivalent: ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-v3.5.12/ubuntu lucid main , etc.
Try this:
deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/ubuntu lucid main deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/ubuntu lucid main deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps/ubuntu lucid main deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps/ubuntu lucid main
I realize that I did not keep 3.5.12 installation instructions up on the website, however I have not deleted a TDE binary build yet. This may need to change due to disk space constraints in the future, but I will try to give at least 3 months of warning on the announce mailing list before I delete anything. The 3.5.12 packages can be viewed here: https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity/+packages
And, to be clear, going from 3.5.11->3.5.12->3.5.13 will ease me through all the name changes from *-kde3 to *-trinity?? I don't want to FUBAR this 'production' workstation -- well, not beyond the usual few glitches.
Yes, it will ease you through everything. I can't guarantee that everything will be glitch-free (see other posts on this list regarding the upgrade process), but this will be the easiest way to go.
