| Hi,
| 
| libgsl25 from bullseye and libgsl27 from bookworm are not co-installable
| due to their strict dependency on libgslcblas0. Sometimes apt has
| problems handling this transitive conflict correctly (i.e. removing the
| obsolete library) and instead tries to keep the obsolete package
| installed and hold some upgradable packages at their bullseye versions.
| Turning the transitive conflict into an explicit one helps apt making
| the right choice.
| 
| Please consider applying the attached patch.

Yes thank you -- that sounds sensible.  And we would then nag the release
team to get this out in the release?
