Package: sphinxsearch Severity: important Version: 2.8.2-1 For visibility purposes I decided to file this bug report. People tracking this package should know that Sphinx Search 3.x series is not open source anymore, and upstream does not plan to switch back to open source due to their business priorities.
There are free (as in beer) binaries at https://sphx.org/downloads/current/ for those who want to use it, but Debian officially won't have new versions of Sphinx anymore. There is a discussion in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=911761 about using a potential open replacement in Debian.
