I appreciate your help, but please do not run any commands on my behalf.
- If any commands are recommended to be run, please just let me know
what they are and I will run them.
I have run the following command

Running apt install path-to/ente-auth-v4.2.8-x86_64.deb
will check for dependencies etc. (You must include the path.)
It will also log a record of what was installed or removed
The deb names may be unconventional but the executables worked (at least
v4.2.8 worked).
Can you please suggest suitable Debian package management commands to use
to investigate the current status of the v4.2.8 and v4.3.1 data in the
Debian system.

This shouldn't happen in a correctly built Debian packa
