If you want to use Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty), you can not use TDE 3.5.13.2, but
you need to install preliminary R14.0.0 - either nightly-builds or
preliminary stable-builds.

Nightly-builds:
deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-nightly-build-dependencies/ubuntu trusty main
deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-nightly-builds/ubuntu trusty main

Preliminary stable-buidls (alternative apt source):
deb http://mirror.xcer.cz/trinity-sb trusty deps-r14 main-r14
