Hi,

First of all, thanks for reporting issues you experience and sorry it
took a while to reply.

Did you follow the upgrade procedure as outlined in the release notes,
or is $(apt dist-upgrade) all you ran? It has happened before that apt
can't figure out an upgrade path in one go, but when ran twice it does
(the bullseye release notes had something on a particular known problem
IIRC).

Ideally not, no.

Hmm.

Was this before or after the issue you pointed out above? I assume apt
already told you before this error it wouldn't upgrade everything,
right? Did you retry running $(apt dist-upgrade) again after this error?

If nothing depends on the headers, I'm not surprised. wx3.0-headers has
nothing in the archive providing it, so it's OK that it stays if nothing
conflicts with it; see section 4.8 [1] in the release notes how to
remove obsolete packages.

Although I now somehow doubt that there's anything wrong, I like the
maintainers of wxwidgets3.2 to double check (hence reassigning). The bug
can be closed if this is intended behavior.
