Maybe these should be separate bug reports. However, I'm not sure about that

First of all I don't know which package is causing this but it has to do with
Wayland and KDE.

A distro upgrade of Debian needs a lot of disk space on the root partition.
That partition often doesn't have a large size. That could for example be
because it's on a mobile device, on a SSD drive, has lots of installed
software, or because the user simply followed the advice

These aren't needed for most users and are a privacy and security risk. In
principle, it makes sense to only autostart things one actually needs to reduce
the likelihood of crashes, the number of irrelevant log entries, the hardware

Same here on multiple Debian/KDE machines after upgrading to Debian12. I think

Sure, I'm aware of that. Once again, this is about kept-back packages. When

It's not the machine but the partition. One can set up Debian to use a separate
