aptoncd rejects tde-trinity pkgs

Does anybody know why aptoncd rejects all TDE-Trinity packages? I am running 
Devuan Jessie (or sometimes, Debian Jessie ...). 

I have no problem with other Debian/Devuan packages; I can even get it to 
accept the odd older package from Wheezy). In the past, when I experimented 
with trying to burn aptoncd discs, I discovered that I could not burn (for 
example) discs for Kubuntu Precise while running Kubuntu Hardy, because the 
system interpreted all packages as intended for Hardy. I even changed my apt 
sources.list to Precise repositories, thinking I might fool the system, but 
this didn't work, either. 

So I thought it would be no problem to burn Trinity packages for my current 
system, as everything runs on Jessie. I suppose it is not too inconvenient to 
install from an external drive using dpkg, but I would prefer to keep my 
packages on discs, as it makes installation and reinstallation faster and 
more reliable for my situation. 

Thanks for any help.
