Hello,

Texmacs won't be back in Debian official repos in the near future because the
Scheme scripts engine Texmacs uses (Guile 1.8) is no longer available in
Debian (too old, deprecated). Replacing Guile 1.8 by another Scheme engine
(not necessarily Guile 2.x) is of course the way to go, but it is a highly
non-trivial task.

Meanwhile you can install Texmacs (with Guile 1.8) from the repo indicated by
Henri; this works well. As an alternative one may also use the (experimental)
Appimage:
https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/slowphil:/texmacs-devel/AppImage/
