samba - Nov 2022 - Updates wanting to uninstall Samba on member server

Hi Michael,

apt upgrade tries also to remove some packages and kept back the 
possible updates:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer 
required:
 ? bind9-dnsutils libbrotli-dev libfreetype-dev libpng-dev libpng-tools
 ? zlib1g-dev
Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them.
The following packages have been kept back:
 ? libtalloc2 libtdb1
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded.

Regards
Ingo

No, it is not tries to remove them, it says they're no longer needed.
You can actually remove them by `apt autoremove'.  These are packages
which you didn't install explicitly, but which were installed as
dependencies
of other packages which either does not require the dependencies anymore,
or has been removed.  Or if you actually use some of these packages, you
can run `apt-mark manual $package' to tell apt to keep it.
