Indeed, I confirm. Note that this will change with glibc 2.34 which has nss_files and nss_dns built-in. > The dependencies should ensure that apt/dpkg only install a working set > of packages.

This is correct, there is no breakage between minor version, only between major version. Now, given that bookworm will very likely have glibc >= 2.34 (at least that the goal if we are able to solve all issues with each new upstream version), so I am not sure if it is worth implementing such a change.
