I'm running Trixie on an AMD64 system.

Yesterday after doing my usual morning full-upgrade, I rebooted because there were a lot of Plasma-related updates. When I logged in, I found I wasn't connected to my file server shares. I eventually traced this down to a lack of nfs software on my workstation. Reinstalling nfs-client fixed this.

I guess I need to pay closer attention to what autoremove tells me it's going to remove, but I'm confused as to why it would remove nfs-client & related packages.

This follows a couple of previous full-upgrades that were having problems. The first, a few days ago, was stopped by gdb not being available. However, it installed fine manually (apt install gdb). I don't see why apt full-upgrade didn't do this automatically as a dependency for whatever package needed it.

The second was blocked by the lack of a lcl-qt5 or lcl-gtk5 library. I can see this as legitimate because it looks like you don't need both so the package manager lets you decide which you want.

Not looking for a solution. Just reporting a spate of oddities I've encountered lately.
