I think Martin just tried to use build.sh deps-apt and it doesn't work on the latest Debian...? It does sound like a real problem. https://github.com/factor/factor/blob/b06f7f0b25d7b8f7cc568379619fe673354dc271/build.sh#L776
(Incidentally, it feels to me like the previous response could have been written by an llm ? Not intending to be dismissing but the response didn't seem very appropriate) Sorry I'm not bringing much to the table either, I just wanted to say that Martin's question looks legitimate, maybe someone else using Trixie can provide some more help ?
