By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Laurent Dard 2011-11-23 05:54:00 CST

I think there should be some words about building Trinity from sources in:
  http://www.trinitydesktop.org/installation.php

with a link to:
  http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/HowToBuild

And, maybe, direct links to external resources:
  http://humanreadable.nfshost.com/sdeg/kde_35x.htm
  https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Trinity

Debian users who are running testing/unstable or uncommon architectures could be informed how to compile Trinity with debian tools:
  apt-get source ...
  apt-get -b source ...
with a warning about dependencies trouble they might encounter.


[NOTE: I'm installing Trinity on (Cross) Linux From Scratch. If somebody find it interesting, I can send a howto, when I'll finished.]

The website has some obsolete/incomplete instructions.
Work on a new website is in progress. This should also have updated info about how to install and build TDE.
Closing this report.
