apt(-get) is informing you that a configured repository has changed one 
of its values (in this case the 'Version', but could be any other 
field). This is to provide a safeguard against repositories changing 
values behind your back, possibly with security consequences.

Just imagine a malicious (or just incompetent) third-party repository 
suddenly claiming to be "buster-security" on a system configured to 
install security updates automatically.

Kind regards,
