djmount and linux-igd would get removed:

% dak rm -Rn -s buster djmount linux-igd
Will remove the following packages from buster:

   djmount |   0.71-7.1 | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips, 
mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x
 linux-igd | 1.0+cvs20070630-6 | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, 
mips, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x

Maintainer: Debian QA Group <packa...@qa.debian.org>, Dario Minnucci 
<mid...@debian.org>

------------------- Reason -------------------

----------------------------------------------

Checking reverse dependencies...
No dependency problem found.


If not fixed by the maintainer, we'll NMU amule. gerbera needs a sourceful
upload in any case to switch back to libupnp-dev. All the other issues have been
fixed.
