Yesterday, I upgraded Buster => Bullseye.

This morning, I got a mail from unattended-upgrades, which said:

> Packages with upgradable origin but kept back:
>   Debian stable:
>    guile-2.2-libs w3m

and
> Package guile-2.2-libs is kept back because a related package is kept back or due to local apt_preferences(5).
> Package w3m is kept back because a related package is kept back or due to local apt_preferences(5).
What does this mean?  I have what I believe to be a clean install, I 
have never used apt_preferences, and until now, I had never heard of 
guile or w3m.  And I don't quite understand why I have them installed at 
all.  My sources.list contains only bullseye and bullseye-backports.

What do I do?

apt list says:
> guile-2.2-libs/stable 2.2.7+1-6 amd64 [upgradable from: 2.2.4+1-2+deb10u1]
> guile-2.2-libs/now 2.2.4+1-2+deb10u1 amd64 [installed,upgradable to: 
> 2.2.7+1-6]
>
> w3m/stable 0.5.3+git20210102-6 amd64 [upgradable from: 0.5.3-37]
> w3m/now 0.5.3-37 amd64 [installed,upgradable to: 0.5.3+git20210102-6]
>
Thanks,
Jesper
