Describe the bug
The upgrade to the Debian bookworm xpra 5.0-r0-1 package would require 7 GB of new packages to be installed. This is probably unreasonable and due to an unfortunate dependencies that could probably be made optional.

To Reproduce
Upgrade xpra on Debian bookworm from "4.4.6-r29-1" to "5.0-r0-1"

System Information (please complete the following information):

  • Server OS: Debian bookworm

Additional context
The new dependencies seem to pull in a lot of nvidia libraries and nvidia development packages, even on systemd that do not have a nvidia card. Maybe some dependencies (probably especially xpra-codecs-nvidia) should be moved from recommends to suggests?

Use "no-install-recommends" or remove the xpra-nvidia-codecs package.
See #3968
