In the meantime I already installd cups-filters (just with "apt
install"), but most of the others are still there (and the set grows).

Let's take graphviz as an example now. I performe the "dist-upgrade"
with the "Solver=3". The entire output is 11 M (if you want, I can
provide this), but then grepping for graphviz yields:

However, I cannot really parse the „Reject“ line.

Does this trace ring any bells on your side?
