Thank you Luke, and Holger for your similar confirmation regarding Signal.
So, if you'd like to receive both a 'good beep' and 'bad beep' experience during your DC25 Bibus travels, I can confirm that it is possible to replace the 2024-encoded passes, at no cost to you, at the Bibus ticket office[1] near Liberté station -- but otherwise it seems that all is well.
From #debconf yesterday:
[2025-07-16 16:07:22] <bensmrs> Ok we have an official answer for the
Bibus tickets
[2025-07-16 16:07:54] <bensmrs> The tickets are encoded to end on July
20th, 2024…
[2025-07-16 16:08:22] <bensmrs> An official note has been communicated
to the agents controlling tickets, so you won’t be bothered by them
So you can use your pass and ignore the error.
Cheers,
Luke Faraone
