Oh that’s interesting! I see references to Debian Buster in the commit log (https://github.com/indexdata/idzebra/commits/master). I might shoot off an email about getting some updated packages/releases.
Can we really call Zebra usage deprecated if it’s still the default stable option for new installations? On the surface, Elasticsearch still seems experimental.

Subject: Re: [Koha-devel] Is Indexdata's Zebra a dead project?
Latest commit is from April 8th. I belive it is in maintenance mode only.
We deprecated it, though. So focus is on ES integration.

Hi all,
I just noticed that Indexdata doesn’t provide Zebra packages past Debian Stretch: http://ftp.indexdata.dk/pub/zebra/debian/. The latest Ubuntu package is for 18.04 (Bionic): http://ftp.indexdata.dk/pub/zebra/ubuntu/
In fact, Zebra hasn’t been updated since August 2018 according to the changelog: https://software.indexdata.com/zebra/doc/NEWS.
In Debian, it looks like Debian 11 Bullseye will have the latest Zebra (2.1.4), so there is that at least.
I guess people using Debian 10 Buster will either need to use the buggy Zebra (2.0.59) in Debian or maybe use the Stretch packages from Indexdata. But then from Bullseye onwards there will be the latest Zebra until Debian drops the package I guess.
All the more reason to move more to Elasticsearch?
