+<title>Useful notes on upgrading</title>
+<para>When upgrading from previous releases you may run into some of
+the following use cases. Follow the recommended instructions to minimize
+potential problems.</para>
+
+<sect3 id="release-notes-r14.0.7-hints-gpg">
+<title>New GPG signing key for deb repositories</title>
+<para>A new GPG key is now used to sign Debian / Raspbian / Ubuntu repositories.</para>
+<para>If you use any of such distros and already have the trinity-keyring
+package installed, changing the GPG key for the repository will not affect
+you. If you do not have the trinity-keyring package installed, you must
+first obtain a new GPG key as described in Import GPG signing key otherwise
+the repository will be reported as untrusted.</para>

+<sect3 id="release-notes-r14.0.7-hints-kpilot">
+<title>Conflict between KPilot and tde-i18n packages</title>
+<para>For historical reasons KPilot translations were part of the tde-i18n
+package. Now the translations have been carved out from tde-i18n and moved
+to the kpilot package.</para>
+<para>If you have kpilot installed, we recommend uninstalling the package
+before upgrading to the new release to avoid conflicts of translation files.
+You can reinstall KPilot after the upgrade process has completed.</para>

+<sect3 id="release-notes-r14.0.7-hints-dbus">
+<title>Removed dbus policy at_console</title>
+<para>A newer version of SystemD has removed the dbus policy at_console.
+As a result, communication with the TDE Hardware Control daemon may stop
+working.</para>
+<para>While this will be addressed in the R14.1.0 release, for the time
+being if you encounter this problem we recommend to change the policy from
+at_console="true" to some other acceptable options such as group="users"
+in /etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.trinitydesktop.hardwarecontrol.conf.</para>

+<title>FreeBSD Support</title>
+<para>TDE continues to offer support for FreeBSD, although still partial
+given some of the new issues that have arisen with the latest versions
+of FreeBSD. The TDE team will try their best to improve support for
+FreeBSD but progress will probably be slow. Additional developers or
+contributors willing to help porting the remaining features and
+applications are always welcome.</para>
