Hello everyone!
I had an installation of debian stable (stretch) which was fully upgraded 
something
like a couple of months ago. Then I passed it to testing (buster).

Now I'm facing this situation:
* 5031 installed packages
* 1292 upgradable packages

If I do a normal upgrade, 676 packages are to be upgraded, but only the gtk/qt 
unrelated ones
(for example, apache2-doc but none of the apache2 *real* packages, or 
vim-addon-manager and vim-doc
but none of the vim *real* packages, and so on)

And if I try to upgrade, let's say, vim-* packages, it wants to remove a ton of 
seemingly unrelated
packages, like calibre, evolution, gir1.2-*, gstreamer things, kid3, libqt5-*, 
pidgin, vlc-*, etc etc...

This happens when I try to upgrade or install apparently *anything* related to 
GUI programs (GTK/Qt related).

I am worried to make an upgrade like that.

What can I do to debug this situation and try to understand which package(s) 
is/are breaking everything?

I have no pinned packages.

Thank you in advance!
