Summary

All apache2 packages on Debian 10 and later already have a hard dependency on the mime-support package. While mime-support still exists on Debian 12 as a transitonal package, upcoming Debian 13 has removed it entirely.

This sets the $mime_support_package to undefined so that the package isn't managed on Debian, since it doesn't need to be.

Additional Context

Currently, the module fails completely on Debian testing (upcoming release 13 codenamed trixie):
