It's pulled in through a recommends by python3-software-properties which
itself is depended on by libreoffice-kde by way of a dependency on the
software-properties-kde package. The libreoffice-kde package is
recommended by task-kde-desktop.

# Hmm, cutting either recommends looks like something between a rock and

Against which package?

BTW, why again are we trying so hard to not pull in unattended-upgrades?
I think I lost track and considering my own Devuan (server) experiences,
which have been good, I'm not quite sure I still understand :-/

# It was my Debian server that needed a dbus cluebat ... ;-)

Your average KDE/GNOME desktop user might actually appreciate their
security upgrades getting applied "behind their backs" or "without user
intervention", depending on your point of view.

Hope this helps,
