I tried really hard to understand what you were trying to do and how you were
trying to do it, with a view to trying to help. I failed miserably. Why are
you re-installing "apt and all its kinfolks", and what are "all its
kinfolks"?
I understand that you are running what you are running for a reason. But you
keep pretending that it ought to run smoothly like a nice new vanilla system.
Of course it won't. And it is the fault of neither Debian nor TDE that you
have special needs. Oh, there is no reason why you shouldn't ask for those
needs to be met, but you cannot call things broken, if either you don't like
them, or they don't like your very idiosyncratic system.
