This bug was fixed in the package granite - 6.2.0-2

---------------
granite (6.2.0-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Frozen upstream: no new release expected for granite 6.x since
    granite 7.x has switched to GTK4. granites 7.x is packaged as
    separate, co-installable packages.
  * debian/gbp.conf: Specify packaging branch.
  * debian/libgranite6.symbols: Add new symbols.
  * debian/control: Let libgranite6 and libgranite-common Breaks and
    Replaces libgranite0, libgranite5 and elementary-tweaks.
