Re: How to update TDE to newest version?

What way exactly did you try to download ? The package is in repositories.

Hi, I tried to install it from AOSC OS and the TDE Gitea Workspace, tried to install the .deb version, couldn't install due to missing packages "tdebase" and "xscreensaver", I am thinking the reason I couldn't install it was because it was made for TDE 14.1.2 (oops),

Why didn't you install it from the Q4OS repository ? It's the most easy and clean way, just run:
$ sudo apt install tdeartwork-trinity
or install the from any package manager.

Re: How to update TDE to newest version?

Hi, I have this problem too, but from the answer given to the other user I couldn't understand how to solve it.
I used this command in terminal:

nix@nix:~$ tde-config --version
Qt: 3.5.0
TDE: R14.1.1
tde-config: 1.0
nix@nix:~$

Then I passed this other command to the terminal

nix@nix:~$ sudo apt update

How can I update to the new TDE release?

Sorry, I had a little problem copying and pasting from the translation, I omitted this step in the terminal

 nix@nix:~$ tde-config --version
Qt: 3.5.0
TDE: R14.1.1
tde-config: 1.0
nix@nix:~$ sudo apt install tdeartwork-trinity

tdeartwork-trinity è già alla versione più recente (4:14.1.1-0debian12.0.0+0).

The message you are referring to is about updating to the latest version available in the Q4OS / Debian repositories.
There is a different repository for each Q4OS / Debian release with different contents and these contents are frozen (except for patches).
The Q4OS 4 / Debian 11 repositories contain older versions than the Q4OS 5 / Debian 12 repositories, and the latter usually do not contain the latest released versions of packages, which are still being tested for inclusion in a later Q4OS / Debian release. But by then even newer versions may have been released, so the packages available in the Q4OS 6 / Debian 13 repositories will be behind again.

For example, in the case of the sqlite3 (database) package, the latest available version is

  • 3.27 in Q4OS 3 / Debian 10 repositories

  • 3.34 in Q4OS 4 / Debian 11 repositories

  • 3.40 in Q4OS 5 / Debian 12 repositories

  • 3.46 on SQLite website (latest released), but will never be available in the above repositories, one will have to wait for the next version of Q4OS / Debian.

The same is most likely true for TDE (I haven't looked for the different versions available for this package). You will always be limited to the most recent version available in your distribution's repositories, with no possibility to upgrade to the most recent version released by the developers.

If you absolutely want to have this latest version, you will have to install it manually, which can be a difficult and/or risky process (I learned the hard way that installing software obtained outside of your distribution's repository can compromise the proper functioning of the system).

Re: How to update TDE to newest version?

Thank you for your kind reply.
I probably misunderstood the request that Raintania made, and consequently the answers they received.
I thought they intended to download and install the R 14.1.2 version of TDE.
No problem, I'll wait for it to be proposed in the Q4OS updates : )
