Dunno ... probably it became orphaned after upgrading from some previous 
releases. I used apt-forktracer to get rid of some packages before 
upgrading to bullseye, but many packages were still listed there. I was 
cautious and did not want to remove all of those just like that ...

Thanks for advice. I tried to remove that package with apt at first, to 
no avail, but dpkg was successful. Then the '--fix-broken' step and the 
full-upgrade step performed without errors.
