gmusicbrowser is not longer available as a package to install to Debian Linux. It was removed in 2019, due to lack of maintenance and Debian bug 912882. The root cause was that gmusicbrowser depended on libgtk2-perl, which was being dropped.
gmusicbrowser issue 57 tracks progress to migrate to gtk3 since 2013. The 1.1.99.1 release is the first based on gtk3 but there has been a year of development since then, as yet unreleased.
Fortunately, it is easy to install the gtk3 based gmusicbrowser on Debian bullseye with xfce4 desktop. It is probably as easy to install with any other desktops, but I haven't tried any of them.
$ git clone https://github.com/squentin/gmusicbrowser.git$ cd gmusicbrowser
$ sudo make install
I didn't have to install any packages beyond what were already installed.
I haven't tested it extensively, but I haven't had any problems. If you too like gmusicbrowser, you can install it to current Debian system easily this way, and probably many other systems.
