I suggest that, if you intend to upgrade to the current stable,
bookworm (Debian 12), you do that now by a completely new installation.
Restore your customization a bit at a time. If you are lucky, the
problem will go away. If the problem returns and you are lucky, you
will know which customization to revert to fix it.

You do have good backups, right?
