Yes, Debian Edu switched to re-written LTSP. The script isn't used atm. It could have been removed but has been kept because a revised version might be used instead of /usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/edu-ltsp-install, which is used for Bullseye but doesn't seem to be quite handy. Also, all LTSP related documentation still needs some love after the existing LTSP setup has been tested in real world deployments... Wolfgang
