Running Buster and having a the bullseye repository on my system (source one only). I kept source package repository for stretch, buster, bullseye and testing. Seem to be testing changed from bullseye to bookwork that is complaining. I got a series of line saying N and one saying E: N: Repository 'http://security.debian.org buster/updates InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'stable' to 'oldstable' N: Repository 'http://security.debian.org stretch/updates InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'oldstable' to 'oldoldstable' E: Repository 'http://deb.debian.org/debian testing InRelease' changed its 'Codename' value from 'bullseye' to 'bookworm' N: This must be accepted explicitly before updates for this repository can be applied. See apt-secure(8) manpage for details. N: Repository 'http://ftp.debian.org/debian bullseye InRelease' changed its 'Version' value from '' to '11.0' N: Repository 'http://ftp.debian.org/debian bullseye InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'testing' to 'stable' N: Repository 'http://ftp.debian.org/debian bullseye-updates InRelease' changed its 'Version' value from '' to '11-updates' N: Repository 'http://ftp.debian.org/debian bullseye-updates InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'testing-updates' to 'stable-updates' N: Repository 'https://www.deb-multimedia.org buster InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'stable' to 'oldstable' N: Repository 'http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'stable' to 'oldstable' N: Repository 'http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster-updates InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'stable-updates' to 'oldstable-updates' N: Repository 'http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch-updates InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'oldstable-updates' to 'oldoldstable-updates' N: Repository 'http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch Release' changed its 'Suite' value from 'oldstable' to 'oldoldstable' Will be fixed in a dirty way (remove the offending non needed repository) -- Polyna-Maude R.-Summerside -Be smart, Be wise, Support opensource development
