Hi Mike, 

Our policy is install software from Debian repository.  
Installing Tomcat 9 on Debian 12 sadly bypasses repository putting Tomcat at 
risk from missing updates.

There are no known issues with building guacamole-client.

As long as you have Maven and a version of the JDK installed (8 or newer), 
things should build just fine.

This (upgrading Tomcat) does not pertain to the question at hand (upgrading 
Guacamole). If you are also looking to upgrade your copy of Tomcat, you need to 
instead use the latest release of Tomcat 9.x:

https://tomcat.apache.org/download-90.cgi

Tomcat 10.x uses a different and incompatible API which would require 
correspondingly incompatible changes within Guacamole. Tomcat 9.x, on the other 
hand, is actively maintained and compatible.

That's not to say support for Tomcat 10.x will never be added. Only that:

* Doing so while maintaining API compatibility is non-trivial, and maintaining 
API compatibility is important.
* Doing so is pretty low priority so long as Tomcat 9.x remains an actively 
maintained option.
