It is available in sid, but not in stable.
Hi Debian users,
I have a computer running Gnome 43.6 that does not show notification
when updates are available. It was working a few months ago, but can not
tell when it stops working.
Questions:
- How can I bring back available update notifications?
- Do you think it deserves a bug report

Maybe the op wqould like to test aqemu, which is a graphical frontend for qemu
and it might be easier for him to configure.
In the comparision of aqemu (with using kvm) and VirtualkBox and Virt-Manager
my feeling was, Virtualbox the slowest and both Aqemu and VirtManager faster.
The latter two

Then you don't need to care about sid, unstable nor experimental, only
about stable/bookworm.
(please tell us the OS
you are using).
* debian bookworm
* not interested with backports
[ 7.5.6 ] or stable [ 7.4.7 ]
