Hmm... after reading your message again, I think we're talking about
two separate problems that have very similar symptoms.

I've never actually *heard* of your problem before, nor have I seen it.

In all cases, whenever I've had a machine that ran *only* stable releases,
this symptom has never happened to me.  All stable-to-stable release
upgrades have gone smoothly for me, at least as far as the "apt-get update"
step goes.  I'm not sure what you're doing differently, or why it's not
working properly for you.

What *I* saw (and put on the wiki), was that a machine which ran buster
*as testing* (i.e. was upgraded from stretch to testing, prior to
buster's release) ran into the problem you describe, except that it
said the suite name changed from "testing" to "stable".

When I upgraded my buster-to-testing-to-bullseye machine today, I did not
see this same problem.  I got a bunch of warnings, and I *thought* I was
seeing the same problem as last time, but it turns out I didn't actually
have to run "apt update".  The "apt-get update" had worked in the first
place.
