Agreed on that point. But I suspect that the maintainer is going to become involved to get approx working in Debian-12. I searched for "Debian approx apt-cache" and found several users of apt-cache and apt-cache-ng who reported the packages buggy and several who expressed appreciation for the stability of approx. Whatever release of approx I have running on the Debian-9 machine works flawlessly, but I do hope to upgrade the Debian version on that machine. I suppose I could reinstall on my planned replacement, and see whether approx still works with Debian-11, or go back to Debian-10, if necessary. RLH
