I hadn't spotted that there is a link on this page though it does say an email will be sent. That doesn't seem to be the case. I followed that through to the directory of debs and found the bullseye/11 clients. As you say, that should be OK for Debian 12.
Am I correct in thinking that it isn't necessary to install a database in a client-only configuration? -Chris- On Fri, 1 Sept 2023, 19:42 Rob Gerber, <r...@craeon.net> wrote: > Oh no, I gave you wrong information.
