Debian Trixie and "onboard" on-screen keyboard - missing at-spi2-core was created by rdtsc

Hi, just a note if you try

sudo apt install onboard

to use the on-screen keyboard, this will not work. It results in:

(onboard:1747): dbind-ERROR **: 09:00:29.341: AT-SPI: Couldn't connect to accessibility bus. Is at-spi-bus-launcher running?
Trace/breakpoint trap

This is due to an unmet dependency.

at-spi2-common

is included, but not

at-spi2-core

. Install that package also and onboard will then work.
