Amazing, the bug reporter had virtually the same problem as I did.
Unfortunately, I decided to reinstall anyway. I accumulate cruft
(packages I install just to test and forget to uninstall), so I figured
a fresh install of Bookworm with just the packages I wanted would be
best.
In any case, thanks for your advice.
