[Bug 2054908] Re: gpg-wks-server pulls in postfix

[Jeremy Bícha]

** Description changed:

  Example 1
  ----
  I did a sudo apt dist-upgrade today on my developer machine running Ubuntu Desktop 24.04 LTS and it surprisingly pulled in postfix.
  
  I did not built this into a full reproducible test case because I found
  another test case…
  
  Example 2
  ----
  munin's autopkgtests are now failing because postfix is now unexpectedly being installed.
  
  https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/munin/noble/amd64
  
  Other Info
  ----
- gnupg2's changelog indicates that there was an attempt to avoid this misbehavior by having gnupg only Suggest gpg-wks-server. In fact, there is **nothing** in Ubuntu that Depends or Recommends gpg-wks-server.

  I added a munin bug task as a pointer in case anyone wonder's about the
  autopkgtest regression but I don't believe munin needs any changes.
