I need a reproducer for this. apg does not have any maintainer scripts 
that might be causing this. Its dependencies are all autogenerated; 
current version in bookworm only depends on libc6 and libcrypt1.

There is nothing in the package that might be causing this.

What would this have to do with the issue?
