Seems this issue only happens with apt – not when using apt-get.
Yuck. Can you ask the apt developers whether this is intended? I always expected apt-get and apt to be functionally equivalent (i.e. to always take the same decisions when installing/upgrading/removing packages since they use the same resolver in the background). (If they are not, testing apt, too, means doubling the number of piuparts tests...)
Have you tried default-mysql-server + (roundcube-core (or roundcube) or cacti)? This yields the unwanted behavior (removing default-mysql-server + mariadb-server-10.3 without installing mariadb-server-10.5)) with apt-get in my piuparts tests both with and without --install-recommends.
I can find more examples that only work with --install-recommends. Andreas
