Bug#1110938: apt autoremove remove network-manager-gnome and netwok-manager-applet after migration to trixie

With the unexpected removal of the network-manager applet I assumed the
machine would lose network access, and could not restore it due to
network being a requirement for installing the now missing packages. For
a lot of users, this would be as good as an unusable system.

But I might have been a bit quick with that: is that only the applet
that is removed? The core network-manager package itself is staying in
place, so network access is preserved?

If I was wrong about the loss of network access, then the severity
should probably be no higher than important.

PS: I added a comment with the bts command, but I notice it is not made
really obvious. Even I, knowing it was there, took a little while to
find it under the "full text" link next to the severity change notice.
I’m probably no longer going to rely on that comment system.
