I don't know that /opt/tde won't work. I haven't tried.

The 'trinity' tag was agreed upon for package names.

Using /opt/trinity would make your builds consistent with the 
package names. Also, the default profile directory is ~/.trinity, 
therefore /opt/trinity would match that too.

Consistency tends to makes us bipeds warm and fuzzy. :)

If you have a working copy of tdewebdev installed, even 3.5.x, give 
tdefilereplace a whirl. Fairly slick tool for performing multi-line 
search and replace operations. I've used the tool several times to 
perform mass updates of my build scripts.
