I'm running Trixie on an AMD64 system.

Yesterday after doing my usual morning full-upgrade, I rebooted because 
there were a lot of Plasma-related updates. When I logged in, I found I 
wasn't connected to my file server shares. I eventually traced this down 
to a lack of nfs software on my workstation. Reinstalling nfs-client 
fixed this.

I guess I need to pay closer attention to what autoremove tells me it's 
going to remove, but I'm confused as to why it would remove nfs-client & 
related packages.

This follows a couple of previous full-upgrades that were having 
problems. The first, a few days ago, was stopped by gdb not being 
available. However, it installed fine manually (apt install gdb). I 
don't see why apt full-upgrade didn't do this automatically as a 
dependency for whatever package needed it.

The second was blocked by the lack of a lcl-qt5 or lcl-gtk5 library. I 
can see this as legitimate because it looks like you don't need both so 
the package manager lets you decide which you want.

Not looking for a solution. Just reporting a spate of oddities I've 
encountered lately.
