Fine, still a little hacky as Debian Trixie is not yet released but better than 
our existing and maybe coming workarounds :).
I saw the first alpha installer for Trixie these days, so it might be released 
within the next months anyway.

In https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/4094, you added even more dependencies. 
Those are not necessary now?

I did, maybe two years ago. At that time, the installer didn't start or 
something like that. But I'll give it another chance, good idea.

The good thing is, I can finally burn down that Windows 7 VM. The only reason 
for its existance is gone :).
