G'day Robert,
   After your report of success, I took the plunge and installed Ubuntu 
14.04 (Trusty) on my "trusty" Acer netbook.  Then added Slavek's 
preliminary stable-build repo to the sources.list and added the 
apt-key.  "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade" went fine but when I 
did "apt-get install kubuntu-default-settings-trinity 
kubuntu-desktop-trinity"
I immediately get over 70 errors/warnings.  The show-stopper seems to be
"The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 kubuntu-desktop-trinity : Depends: pnm2ppa but it is not installable
                           Recommends: tdeio-apt-trinity but it is not 
going to be installed
                           Recommends: tde-guidance-powermanager-trinity 
but it is not going to be installed
                           Recommends: adept-trinity but it is not going 
to be installed"  and so on for pages.

  Obviously I've done something stupid as there is no "pnm2ppa" package,
suggestions please.

PS.  Just tried the nightly-build repos with the same result - so I've 
missed something essential.  G.  :-(
