Package: release-notes
Severity: normal

If a minimal system with gnupg is upgraded to trixie it is likely to pull in an
unwanted MTA because of changed dependencies. Such users may find it helpful
for a hint in the release notes to remove gpg-wks-server on upgrade, such as
with:

  apt full-upgrade gpg-wks-server-

This is not an issue for new installations because gpg-wks-server is dropped
from the Depends: list for gnupg, but for existing installations,
gpg-wks-server has gained a dependency on an MTA in trixie.
