    This evening I have tested different apt versions.
    Solver3 is the cause, why ‘apt full-upgrade’ does notwork anymore in antiX sid.

    The last apt version with no solver3 at all was apt 2.9.29
    After a downgrade to apt_2.9.29.0nosystemd1
    ‘apt full-upgrade’ does work again in antiX sid.

    apt 3.0.3 was the apt last version with solver2 as default and solver3 as an option.
    ‘apt full-upgrade’ with apt_3.0.3.0nosystemd1 quits with a strange error message:
    “Error: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/sqv could not be found.
    Notice: Is the package apt-transport-sqv installed?”

    The Debian version apt_3.0.3 does work, but requires libelogind-compat and libelogind0.

    Question to @anticapitalista:
    Would it be possible for the next apt_3.x.y.0nosystemd1 to remove solver3 completely and replace it by the latest solver2 version (from apt 3.0.3) ?
