I do have 2 Palm Pilots but I have not used them since the 20th
century; I even gave up my beloved Psion devices more than a decade
ago, and Symbian about 5y later.

But I have looked for you.

Here is where JPilot is developed:

As you can see, there has been no new release in 10 years and 6 months.

How long do you think a distribution can keep software that is no
longer maintained by the person who wrote it?

Have you tried just installing it yourself?
