Albert,

  I updated an i686 box with the Trinity 3.5.12 packages (Arch/chakra name
kdemod3). The update went FINE. On restart of the Trinity desktop, the initial
Trinity config appeared and then Trinity launched just fine.

  From the time I spent with it, all looked good. Great job. These are a
fantastic update to the old 3.5.10 packages that existed. I'll drop a note on
the Arch-general list letting them know that Trinity stable (3.5.12) is
available as an updated kdemod3.

  Can you provide a link for the src file for the PKGBUILDs? On comment that was
made is that we should fix the PKGBUILDs so we are building packages named
'Trinity' instead of 'kdemod3'. This is relevant since Chakra no longer has a
relationship with Arch Linux (in either kde3 or kde4) I'm happy to help with the
conversion.

  Also, if you will provide an outline for what you had to do to build 3.5.12
from the kdemod3 PKGBUILDs, I'll add that to the Trinity archwiki. Thanks.
