"apt-cache show desktop-base-trinity" reveals that desktop-base-trinity
both conflicts with and provides desktop-base. IOW it is a TDE-specific
replacement for desktop-base.
Second, I want to install every doggone TDE package possible. I never
have experienced a full TDE and I want to see how everything functions.
Running "apt search trinity" finds many packages. I don't know if "apt
install tde-trinity" installs everything. My Debian Fu is horribly rusty
and could use help proceeding.
From "apt-cache show tde-trinity":
This metapackage includes all the official modules released with TDE that
are not specific to development. In addition to the core TDE modules, this
includes multimedia, networking, personal information manager (PIM),
graphics, education, games, web development, system administration tools,
and other artwork and utilities.
I installed the tde-trinity mega package. That affected the Cinnamon
desktop icons although the remainder of the DE seems okay. I was able to
reinstall several related packages that were removed but the Cinnamon
desktop icons remain messed up. The other DEs seem unaffected.
Bottom line is there is a minor conflict with TDE and Cinnamon if
somebody wants both installed. I seem to recall with Debian that
installing individual packages often avoids conflicts caused by
installing mega packages. I am not a Debian guru and not really
important right now.
Except for KDE menu options there is notable TDE menu clutter caused by
installing multiple DEs. Would be interesting if there was a compilation
option like tdelibs DWITH_KDE4_MENU_SUFFIX for other DEs. Just thinking
out loud, nothing more.
