| [11:52] | msiism: As someone asked in here recently how to remove TDE formtheir system, I've now put together instructions on how to do that for Devuan and added them to https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Devuan_Trinity_Repository_Installation_Instructions |
| [11:53] | msiism: Still need to make a few adjustments and additons. But it should basically be good to go. |
| [11:54] | msiism: I've tested it all for the R14.0.x series. As far a sI can see, there's no reason this wouldn't work for the rolling-release packages as well. |
| [11:54] | msiism: I'll test this shortly. |
| [12:01] | SlavekB: I believe that the following call looks greatly simpler: |
| [12:01] | SlavekB: aptitude purge "~i~Otrinitydesktop" |
| [12:02] | msiism: Sure. The problem is that aptitude is not necessarily installed by default. |
| [12:02] | msiism: Maybe people should be told to just install it. |
| [12:02] | SlavekB: Yes, but it seems easier to install aptitude, instead of performing significantly more complex procedures. |
| [12:03] | msiism: Okay, fait point. |
| [12:03] | msiism: s/fait/fair |
| [12:03] | msiism: I'll put this in my notes. |
| [12:04] | SlavekB: I do not know whether the newer version of the "apt" tool also can use search sequences like aptitude. |
| [12:04] | msiism: The "trinity" of Debian's package management front ends drives me crazy… ;) |
| [12:04] | msiism: Okay, let me check that out. |
| [12:05] | msiism: I did initially convert everything to apt-get because I wanted the commands to be consistent. |
| [12:05] | SlavekB: Simply - it seems useful to use a more appropriate tool than to do things more complicated :) |
| [12:05] | msiism: So, maybe it would be a good idea to convert it all to using aptitude. |
| [12:07] | msiism: But then, I think aptitude is not recommended for full system upgrades. So we gotta use apt-get for that. Makes me dizzy… |
| [12:07] | msiism: Okay, thanks anyway. I'll try to provide instructions using aptitude as soon as I can. |
| [12:08] | msiism: Or, maybe just add that one right now… |
| [12:08] | msiism: Hm… complicated. I'd rather think this through again before. |
| [12:12] | msiism: Actually, this is about the only step where using aptitude is strictly advised. So, I'll leave it at apt-get, generally but add a not that removing everything installed from the trinity is way easier using aptitude. |
| [12:12] | msiism: s/not/note |
| [12:14] | msiism: Can't do that today, though. Maybe tomorrow. |
