See for example the discussion in <a href="https://github.com/Netatalk/netatalk/discussions/574" dir="auto">https://github.com/Netatalk/netatalk/discussions/574</a></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Disclaimer that I don’t know if this is still a viable strategy. Some users have reported library incompatibilities. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Then you can use the official Docker image, or if all else fail build from source code. The netatalk website has more details: <a href="https://netatalk.io/" dir="auto">https://netatalk.io/</a></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">You may be pleased to hear that the netatalk package has been accepted back into Debian Trixie, so by mid 2025 it should be easier to get started if you upgrade the distribution. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Cheers!</div><div dir="auto">Daniel</div><div><br></div>Den 28 nov. 2024 kl 22:11, Gerald Przybylski <<a class="" href="mailto:Den 28 nov. 2024 kl 22:11, Gerald Przybylski <<a href=">gtp000000@gmail.com</a>> skrev:<blockquote type="cite" class="protonmail_quote"> <br>A friend, and previous Linux maintainer, suggested that you might be
<br>interested in any feedback I could provide on my troubles getting it going.
<br>(I miss netatalk in the bookworm upgrade, and would rather not backtrack
<br>to Debian-11 to get it.)
<br>
<br>My background is as science technical support for physicists in a
<br>national laboratory - retired after 30 years in 2011.
<br>I built some hardware, maintained some computer systems, wrote some code
<br>for PDP-11 and VAX computers for science projects.
<br>I wrote some assembler for a DSP, and driver enhancements for data
<br>acquisition on a micro-VAX in simpler times.
<br>
<br>Our AFP usage is strictly local behind a NAT, so protected from the
<br>internet. (the router is a Cisco 2921)
<br>We mostly use Apple computers within our LAN, but have several (older
<br>apple) computers with Linux installed on them.
<br>(a mini, a laptop, and an older raspberry-pi booting from an sdd for
<br>Pi-Hole)
<br>
<br>I've installed from tar-balls when they weren't too daunting.
<br>
<br>I'm a total newbie to Debian Backports.
<br>If there is a Trixie Netatalk backport to bookworm, can you please
<br>point me to instructions?
<br>What would you like feedback on?
