Several of the packages being installed were actually transitional packages, that is, the package itself is either a complete no-op (since the functionality of the package is no needed), or else the package only exists to depend on another package of a new name (to support people who are still installing the package by its old name).
For the former, we can drop the dependency entirely, and for the latter we should use the new package name directly.

libgeoip1->libgeoip1t64rename is to make CI pass since the package has been renamed upstream as part of the 64-bit time_t transition: https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2024/02/msg00005.htmlGUS-W-15616760.
