In my case no desktop is installed on this particular system that I want to use as a server.
I have no idea what pulled NetworkManager in and really don't want to find out. All I know is that the script I use to install debian causes it to be pulled in, so in this case I chose to use what was installed rather than to rip it out and put something else in it's place.
I used the same script for bullseye and it has ifupdown and dhcpcd. Go figure?
