On numerous systems I have upgraded recently, the process of:

  apt upgrade --without-new-pkgs
  apt full-upgrade

Results in at least one package (guile-2.2-libs, zile, sometimes others)
in an un-upgraded state.

Running a second "apt full-upgrade" seems to take care of the issue.

Maybe upgrading apt in-between "apt upgrade --without-new-pkgs" and "apt
full-upgrade" would resolve the issue?
