No idea how to find out why qgis gets removed. Might be the removal of qtwebkit.

Upgrading qgis between apt upgrade and apt full-upgrade works around the removal.

The removal also doesn't happen when qgis from bookworm-backports is installed, this should be the case for most actual users of qgis.

Kind Regards,
