As mentioned in <https://salsa.debian.org/ddp-team/release-notes/-/merge_requests/240>, we removed references to deborphan in the release notes; however, we should mention that it was removed and also list alternatives. I lack the free time to document alternatives, which is why I haven't done this yet. However, a LOT of people (myself included) used the deborphan for decades after every major Debian upgrade, so it's going to come up when trixie is released.
In MR 284 I've now documented the deborphan removal. It also notes
to use apt-mark minimize-manual and then apt autoremove.
Improvements welcome in the MR.
