This problem has nothing to do at all with Debian/Devuan. TDE, GNU aso! The "free", that is used by these guys refers only to the source-code itself, but not to what you would like to "I am free, nothing interferes with my privacy". Interpreting a personal "sense" into a written statement is up to the interpreter, nothing else. > > So yes, you are right, they are available, but no, you are also wrong > about my case (which totally mystifies myself, as well), because at > the moment none of my multimedia actually work.

In /etc/apt/sources.list (and/or sources.list.d) only 2 sources: - one for the original Devuan package-source - one for the trinity-packages, see again the TDE-WiKi (don't forget the keyring) Then start aptitude (nothing else) after you have configured it carefully! and delete from the "installed packages" everything that sounds like multimedia. Oh yes, you will almost certainly be bombed with broken dependencies-warnings, delete everything mentioned. Start aptitude anew and let it 'u'pdate itself. First of all search with / for the TDE-package (base or all) and install it with ALL its dependencies. Check with ~b if you have indeed no broken packages anymore. Then start with / again for the next package you want to have, let's say audacious. You'll get, after pressing +, almost sincerely an unmet-dependencies warning. Solve these again with ~b and +. Aso, aso, aso. Now you have a clean and operable bunch of programs available. Their configuration is the next step. If that is not to your liking. I am very sorry.
