Thanks for your response.

My next question is, how do I find out what were the changes between 
what I have installed and the update I'm about to install?

The related question is, how do I build preliminary stable Trinity?

For context, I get a tdesession crash about 1/3 of the time I log out, 
which inspires me to know more.

I would want any changes I proposed to be in relation to PSB.

Philip Ashmore
