 ### API Breaking Changes
 
 * [#20363](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/20363) Deprecated InflationCalculationFn in favor of MintFn, `keeper.DefaultMintFn` wrapper must be used in order to continue using it in `NewAppModule`. This is not breaking for depinject users, as both `MintFn` and `InflationCalculationFn` are accepted.
 * [#19367](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/19398) `appmodule.Environment` is received on the Keeper to get access to different application services.

-### Bug Fixes
+* [#21858](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/21858) `NewKeeper` now returns a pointer to `Keeper`.
+* [#21858](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/21858) `DefaultMintFn` now takes `StakingKeeper` and `MintKeeper` as arguments to avoid staking keeper being required by mint.   
+    * `SetMintFn` is used to replace the default minting function.
+    * `InflationCalculationFn` is not passed through depinject any longer, a MintFn is required instead.
