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)
