Trouble installing on Debian Trixie
I have some of the old packages - but can't install - dependency spiral(see at bottom)
So I'm wondering if anyone has compiled a new one for Trixie or if someone has created an AppImage?

A bad analogy is like a leaky screwdriver.
It looks like libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 became libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0 (note the extra dash)
libpisock9 I can probably find an old version
The missing libreadline7 might be replaced with libreadline8t64 ?
I think I've gotten too old to fix and build packages - anyone else using Debian?

Is Trixie an older outdated release of Debian? (I don't know about the relase names of Debian)
In a current release of Debian you should better use the latest version 2.0.2 of JPilot.
I had a similar Problem (extra dash) with an older Canon printer driver and with a wrong dependency in an Ubuntu package. I was successful with "hacking" the dependency in the DEB-package. This is quite simple, see here (use translater): https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/post/9480820/
and here: https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/flatpak-belegt-1-2-gb-wie-dessen-entledigen/3/#post-9389710
You can also try:
sudo dpkg -iG --force-depends old-jpilot.deb

Trixie is the newest one released a few weeks ago.
