Trixie on RPi 3B+

[IW2FAG-11]

I tried installing the PiJuice GUI on the October 32-bit Debian build (Trixie) for Raspberry Pi, but it's probably not in the official repo yet.
Is there a way to install it anyway?
If so, would it work, or has anyone verified it yet?
It would be a shame to lose PiJuice's great features and have to search for or build something else.
Thanks

When you insist using the PiJuice GUI you will have to revert to Bookworm.
(The legacy version in the RPi installer)
Even on Bookworm you need to switch back to X instead of Wayland. for the Gui.
The reason: the toolkit the Gui is using (Tkinter) only is supported on X.
The needed packages for Tkinter are included in Bookworm, but not in Trixie.
No chance they will be included in Trixie.
Using the PiJuice CLI works fine under Trixie.

To use pijuice_cli on Trixie you need a workaround.
