GNOME Remote Desktop is still available but not enabled by default as
of GNOME 45 in Debian Unstable or Testing.

This can also be verified by running

systemctl --user status gnome-remote-desktop.service

I need to get freerdp3 packaged before I can test the headless mode
for GNOME 46. I'm going to work on that this month because this is
such a major feature that early testing could be helpful.

Thank you,
