   As per subject, after a successful XFCE Bookworm to Trixie upgrade   
   apt suggests to autoremove network-manager-gnome among others:   
      
       root@debian4:~# apt upgrade   
       The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer   
   required:   
         libaio1       libexecs0  libfuse3-3  libunistring2   
   python3-pyatspi  python3-pysimplesoap  python3.11-minimal   
         libcapstone4  libfmt9    libnfs13    network-manager-gnome   
   python3-pycurl   python3.11   
       Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them.

   I believe that this is happening because network-manager-gnome is a   
   transitional package in Trixie and was not manually installed:   
      
       magnus@debian4:~$ apt show network-manager-gnome   
       Package: network-manager-gnome

       Description: transitional package for network-manager-applet and   
   nm-connection-editor   
        NetworkManager is a system network service that manages your network   
   devices   
        and connections, attempting to keep active network connectivity when   
        available. It manages ethernet, Wi-Fi, mobile broadband (WWAN), and   
   PPPoE   
        devices, and provides VPN integration with a variety of different   
   VPN   
        services.   
        .   
        This transitional package depends on network-manager-applet   
   (shipping   
        nm-applet which provides a notification area applet for controlling   
        NetworkManager) and nm-connection-editor (a network connection   
   configuration   
        editor for NetworkManager).   
        .   
        It can be removed safely once no other package depends on it.   
      
       magnus@debian4:~$   
      
      
   In fact task-xfce-desktop now depends on network-manager-applet and   
   nm-connection-editor and not anymore on network-manager-gnome:   
      
       task-xfce-desktop: recommends transitional network-manager-gnome
