Decided to start over with Trixie OS. After creating a new Trixie image on an SD card, installed dump1090-fa and piaware and they are running. Also needed to install rtl-sdr because I use rtl_biast. Then tried to install piaware–web, but I get:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo apt install piaware-web
[sudo] password for pi:
Error: Unable to locate package piaware-web
Also, not sure why system is asking for password much more often. Is that new in Trixie?.
what does the following tell you:
apt-cache policy piaware-web
Did you download tha package from the Piaware page ?
wget https://www.flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/files/packages/pool/piaware/f/flightaware-apt-repository/flightaware-apt-repository_1.3_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i flightaware-apt-repository_1.3_all.deb
piaware is part of the downloaded package
The piaware-web ver 11.0 package is not yet available in Flightaware repository.
However currently source-code for version 11.1~alpha is available in dev branch, and can be built and installed using this branch

piaware-web (11.1~alpha) UNRELEASED;
Did NOT try to build and install the piaware-web version 11.1~alpha on Trixie.
However could build and install successfully on Debian 14 Forky Testing (sid).
Hi Jim
The link below is specific to 6.2 of Pi OS Trixie, but many others are tightening security a bit.
New installs now require a password when using the sudo command option for admin rights. It will remember the password for up to 5 minutes, so you can run multiple sudo commands. After 5 minutes, it will then ask for the password again the next time you use sudo. There are ways to change it back to the previous way if you prefer that.
A security update for Raspberry Pi OS
“From this release onwards, passwordless sudo is disabled by default. If you use sudo for administrator-level access, you will be prompted to enter the current user’s password. In the terminal, the password prompt will appear as soon as you issue a sudo command.”

Thanks for the replies.
Regarding piaware-web, I guess we will just need to wait until that is available for Trixie.
Regarding, passwordless sudo being disabled by default on Raspberry pi Trixie, that creates problems for script installs. For example, I was not initially able to install graphs1090, because of that change. Was finally able to install graphs1090 by using the trick of doing a sudo command, entering the password, and then doing the script install of graphs1090 within 5-minutes. However, I need to figure out how to change back to passwordless sudo.
The good news is, dump1090-fa version 11.0 on Trixie seems to work the way it did with version 10.0 on Bookworm. Will need to do more testing to confirm that. So I guess there is good reason to clean out the “cruft” with a clean install of a new system.
