Re: Upgrading from Stretch to Buster with docker 3rd party installed

I upgraded just fine with 3rd party repositories enabled. What you might want to do is ensure the repositories match the Debian version you're upgrading to.

Typically repositories that do different builds for different Debian versions put the version in the repository URL. So check whether any such repository has a Buster counterpart. If it doesn't, then disable it. If it doesn't have any Debian version indicated, I'd leave it as is.

Hi,
I was going to upgrade to Buster, but I've got docker installed and am running a container as an ldap server. Consequently I don't want to get rid of it, but the install guide I read suggested removing all 3rd-party repositories before starting.

This is the current situatioin with my sources files
