Current status on packages.debian.org:

Following the link from README.md:

It says:

Error: Package not available in this suite.

@reinerh

Does this mean that 0.9.76 cannot be easily installed on Debian 11 anymore?

What is the recommended way of installing firejail on Debian 11-13?

Can users still just install a binary package or should they compile from
source?

If a binary install is still supported, what are the commands to do it?

I'm trying to clarify the current status so that we can update README.md if
needed to help guide users on how to install a supported firejail version on
Debian.

Also, I'm assuming the firejail version cannot be simply upgraded directly
(such as 0.9.74 -> 0.9.76) on supported Debian versions. If the upgrade can
actually be done, please clarify.
