Two of those names are incredibly common but:
# apt-file search at-spi-bus-laun at-spi2-core: /usr/lib/at-spi2-core/at-spi-bus-launcher at-spi2-core: /usr/libexec/at-spi-bus-launcher
For the first two you can find the exe and the command line from the pid. Suppose the pid is 5166. Then:
# ls -l /proc/5166/exe lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Feb 23 13:37 /proc/5166/exe -> /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg
# sed -e 's/\x00/ /g' /proc/5166/cmdline /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg -br -deferglyphs 16 -nolisten tcp :0 vt7 -auth /var/run/xauth/A:0-TX

Thanks, I'll try sorting this out before I attempt yet another reinstallation. (I have a pile of Linux books in storage, and it's hard to find commands that I don't use very often.)
/proc/2666/exe -> /usr/libexec/geoclue-2.0/demos/agent /proc/2660/exe -> /usr/bin/python3.9
This is what I got back. They seem to have been dragged in when I trying to get tork-trinity working. I don't think they are actual dependencies, hard or otherwise, for that program.
Regarding the last item: /proc/2656/exe -> /usr/libexec/at-spi-bus-launcher
I don't quite know what to make of it. Never seen before, so I wonder if it's necessary.
