We don't know because despite being repeatedly asked to do so, you do not show us exact error messages. > Then I find this in the terminal screen I ran synaptic from. > > gene@coyote:~$ sudo -E synaptic > [sudo] password for gene: > > (synaptic:8048): IBUS-WARNING **: 15:33:02.603: The owner of > /home/gene/.config/ibus/bus is not root! > > (synaptic:8048): IBUS-WARNING **: 15:33:02.604: Unable to connect to > ibus: Unexpected lack of content trying to read a line I don't use synaptic but I understand these are just warnings. What actual error do you see in the synaptic GUI? What happens if you use "apt" to do the install? "sudo -E" isn't a very good habit to get into either; it's going to bite you some day if you use it habitually. As synaptic is a GUI app, if it really needs to be run as root I'd expect it to be launched with gksudo or synaptic-pkexec, but as I don't use synaptic I've possibly missed something. What is Trinity and is it actually packaged in Debian? If not, I think you should be seeking help with the Trinity upstream. Cheers, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
