Hi Gene,
now I realized one potential problem when updating from a previous version:
During the tdm-trinity upgrade, the previous version of the package
performs an unwanted removal of the init script /etc/init.d/tdm. If your
system uses init scripts, this can be a critical issue. The best way to
get the init script back is:
apt-get purge tdm-trinity && apt-get install tdm-trinity
Cheers
