Given this discussion: https://github.com/DNSCrypt/dnscrypt-proxy/discussions/2410
It seems that **dnscrypt-proxy** has a dependency called
powerman
used only for testing and not useful in the main pagackage that made it unable to compile and it was not fixed before the last freeze of ***debian 12 bookworm***.
The end result of having the package dnscrypt-proxy
not present in debian 12 !!!
---
For my config I need dnscrypt-proxy
package.
**The remaining options are:**
- Install it from http://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/d/dnscrypt-proxy/ however that would be a static installation, hence making it not updated in case of security fixes.
- Otherwise because it was fixed after debian12 release it is possible to pull it from debian **sid**.
(I searched and it seems that isn't available from backports)
---
**What is the best practice that allows me to not break the debian installation integrating that only package from sid ? Should I use apt pinning ?**
Bard suggested me also this syntax for *sources.list*:
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/sid main/dnscrypt-proxy
but it clearly doesn't work.
