Not totally true though. There have been a few changes. So if you just replace buster with bullseye it might not work. Here is an example of an working bullseye sources.list # testing deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main contrib non-free deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main contrib non-free deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib non-free deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib non-free deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye-updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye-updates main contrib non-free
In addition to Henning Follmann <hfollmann@itcfollmann.com>'s answer: On buster the '/etc/apt/sources.list' file might look like: "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main # buster-updates, previously known as 'volatile' deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main" And on Bullseye: "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye main deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye main deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main" Mind the security lines! -- John Doe
