buster is Debian 10. stable is Debian 12. If you are trying to
upgrade buster to stable, you are making a mistake as you are not
supposed to skip releases. However from the package versions in your
paste I am guessing you meant buster to oldstable (11, bullseye).

Can you confirm you have read the release notes for Debian 11,
specifically the section on upgrading from Debian 10?


https://www.debian.org/releases/oldstable/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html

because if you have, then I do not understand why you aren't
following the documented steps, which are in part:

# apt update
# apt upgrade --without-new-pkgs
# apt full-upgrade

Cheers,
Andy

Stuck where? What instructions did you follow. Did you modify
/etc/apt/sources.list? Did you run "apt update" before "apt upgrade"?

Does anybody read signatures any more?

Run 'apt-get update' first, and then 'apt-get upgrade'.

If Apt-get fails, then try Aptitude. Aptitude has a better solver, and
can often come up with a plan to accomplish an upgrade when Apt or
Apt-get cannot.
