#1111446 — Bug#958853: Fix

I managed to get 2.1.15 from the package working for now for putting 
int(round()) around numbers in preferences.py and deckconf.py when they 
were returning the unexpected float type error. For some reason, even 
though it says the package is removed from testing, I am still able to 
install the package from the repositories.

I'm on Bookworm amd64

Hi Drew,

That sounds like a good fix, thanks.

The anki package is no longer in testing but it is in unstable.  I
don't know what your apt setup is (you could look at
/etc/apt/sources.list and the like), so you might be picking it up
from the unstable distribution.  Alternatively, if you haven't updated
your sources in a while, you might still have an old copy of the
package index still referring to anki.  The main Debian archive does
not distinguish between different distributions
(stable/testing/unstable), so you would still be able to find this
package.

Meanwhile, I still do not think it is in the best interests of
Debian's users to allow a version of anki that is over 2 years old
into stable, as it will then be over 4 years old by the time the next
stable arrives; by then, upstream's servers might be incompatible with
version 2.1.15.  It's an unfortunate situation, but one I am not in a
position to fix.

Best wishes,

   Julian
