Thanks a lot for your report, I have forwarded it upstream.

I assume you are aware, that openvpn-dco-dkms is solely used by OpenVPN
2.6. Since forky includes OpenVPN 2.7 (which only uses the in-tree
ovpn module) it's likely not in use on your system anymore and can
safely be deinstalled.

I will still follow up on this because there might be reasons for
trixie-backports kernel + openvpn 2.6 in Trixie, or forky with OpenVPN
pinned to 2.6, but it will definitely not be shipped with Forky release.
