kmix suggests no packages.
I was upgrading from debian 8 to debian 12. Have install new debian 12 with just the bookworn repositories. Had
taken a list of my debian 8 packages and was reinstalling on debian 12 with the apt install command. Had kmix as part of
debian 8. (no problems) Install it along with a number of other packages and now get a yellow volume scale on my kde desktop
just above task bar. Cant get rid of it. Searching problem on internet suggests this might be an old problem with kmix and kmilo.
Have used the apt remove command to remove kmix. Pc behaves better but after a while still get volume scale.
The following is a copy of the debian 8 packages that I was installing via apt install
