I fell behind with my major upgrades, and just upgraded from buster to
bullseye (soon to be followed by bookworm).

I've been using gnome-schedule, a simple cron GUI, for quite some time
now but it seems to be gone. The upgrade REMOVED it, as shown below.
Strange thing is, searching the web site I can't even find the old
buster gnome-schedule package that I had.

What happened to it? Is there an alternative GUI?

looks like it was removed some time ago...

BTW, for anybody interested, I found a simple Tcl-based cron/at GUI:
vcron. No binaries (but requires Tcl/Tk installed) and the tar file is
set up to put the files into /usr/local/{bin,lib}.
