Hello, it does make sense in the way that manually installing e.g. libavcodec61 with "apt-get install libavcodec61" and automatically installing it as a dependency produces the same results.
What was apt expected to do if something else already had pulled in libavcodec61 from bookworm? Upgrade it, potentially breaking the other package? Leave it alone? You need to tell it somehow. I know this is sometimes tricky. I ended up multiple times downloading the source package from sid and rebuilding it for the current stable just to solve these dependency problems. Bye Andreas Am 1.
