I am using the freedombox Pioneer Edition in version 21.4 and want to install Zoph. But Freedombox says"Diese Anwendung ist in Ihrer Distribution derzeit nicht erhältlich" (it is not available in my distribution. I use Kubuntu in which it is available. I do not want to install it, because in removes maria db.

Do I have to install it?

We are only supporting Zoph in Debian Bullseye (currently testing). After Bullseye becomes a stable release, you can (automatically) upgrade to it and then install Zoph.

Regarding Kubuntu, I assume you are referring to the client device (laptop / desktop). The error message is not about the client device at all. It is about the FreedomBox.
