Sounds like you were doing something wrong. Some packages may fail but certainly not 600 of them, at least not the packages that were installed manually. Packages that were auto-installed should not be installed manually.
In my case, about 5 packages had to (re)installed manually when I was upgrading from Debian 11 to 12.
