As mentioned by @yasu I have marked it DEPRECATED and all =
variants/flavors will be removed by end of February or starting of =
March. In fact during the removal of php74 which is supposed to happen =
sometimes at the end of this year after 28th November we will have to =
remove zabbix[4|54?]-frontend as they do not support php7*. I am still =
not sure about the functionality of zabbix without frontend. I think we =
will be keeping the agent only for the older versions. Zabbix will have =
php8 support sometimes from 6.2 release which is supposed to be released =
on August this year.

Kind Regards,
Moin (bofh)
