Hi Marvin,

Thanks for your efforts trying to reproduce this..

I used the "Debian 13 x64" image on digitalocean, upgraded, then
modified the sources to testing and upgraded again.

I would have assumed that was very similar to the non-graphical
install. I don't know if it was 13.0 or had been upgraded to one of
the later 13 updates.

Sounds good.  I'm glad you confirmed that the regular ways of
installing do not exhibit this issue.

I could create a new droplet briefly to confirm, and see what update
of 13 they are using, but I'm not sure that is worth it..

thank you,
Greg
