--- Begin Message ---The message #20 above seems to be off topic. Since phonon4qt<X>-backend-gstreamer seems to be deprecated, I did the following: $ apt-mark manual gstreamer1.0-plugins-* $ apt remove --purge phonon4qt5-backend-gstreamer $ apt autoremove --purge This also removes the old libphonon4qt5-4t64 and also gstreamer1.0-alsa, gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio. The latter two packages seem not to be necessary, probably as there is gstreamer1.0-pipewire . However, so far the cleanup needs manual interception which may be by design/former manual package installations. Since this way the problem is solved now., I close the thread.
