Now that bookworm has been released, I'm intending to remove the
policykit-1 transitional package during the trixie cycle, so I'm raising
the severity of depends/recommends on the transitional package to
important. The severity will increase to serious later on.

(I'm doing this for packages with only a Recommends too, even though those
don't technically prevent removal of policykit-1, because a Recommends
on a package that no longer exists is not allowed under Policy §2.2.1.)
