Hi Wesley, David,
> You keep saying `apt upgrade' yet your command was `apt full-upgrade'.
Yes, maybe it didn't express itself properly. After your suggestion about not using "apt full-upgrade" during this t64 migration, I followed your advice and used only "apt upgrade" for individual upgrades. I was referring to this comment you made below:

Therefore, that's the advice I'm following right now.
Now, If I type"apt upgrade" doesn't give me any option to update anything:
# apt upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
linux-headers-6.6.15-amd64 linux-headers-6.6.15-common linux-image-6.6.15-amd64 linux-kbuild-6.6.15
Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them.
The following packages have been kept back:
gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly kaddressbook kmail knotes
libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0 libkf5akonadisearch-bin libkf5akonadisearch-plugins

libkpimaddressbookimportexport5 libldb2 libopenconnect5 libqt5webengine5 ppp samba-libs
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 23 not upgraded.
But, in some situations, as you mentioned, individual package upgrades can work and remove some problems. So what I did was to try some "apt upgrade" on individual packages from that list. This time I try the ppp package:
# apt upgrade ppp
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done

As you can see here, I'm typing "apt upgrade ppp" and it removes a package in this case: libpcap0.8 (sometimes more packages are removed).
Which is good, because libpcap0.8 is replaced by libpcap0.8t64 (as expected in this t64 migration) but "apt upgrade ppp" is REMOVING a package (which contradicts the specification).
@David: I will send you the file as you requested.
