First, I am the wrong person to ask about this. I am CCing the wkhtmltopdf
maintainer.

Second, wkhtmltopdf is not a leaf package, there are other packages depending
on it:

  Reverse-Recommends
  ==================
  * civicrm-common
  * python3-a38

  Reverse-Depends
  ===============
  * odoo-16
  * python3-django-wkhtmltopdf
  * python3-pdfkit
