The mktemp package is obsolete.  It comes from coreutils these days.

I guess I should have made it clear that these were obsolete packages
and hence were not part of the release-2 hierarchy.  I don't understand
why non-obsolete packages in release are relying on obsolete packages
though.

That one is a mystery.  I didn't see any creation dates which would
explain this.
