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. ---- greg
