SubjectUpgrade from buster........
Message-ID<CMgpz-5jV-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
	From my keyboard:

	Attempted to upgrade my Buster system to Bullseye, on an
	older Dell lappy. Which I thought would be quick and seamless
	as it was from the previous version of Debian. Stretch I think?

So did an apt update, received the messages that Buster was old-stable
etc.; and then apt upgrade to make certain everything was
current. But didn't upgrade because of failure running
/usr/sbin/apt-listbugs apt

So did apt-get update --allow-releaseinfo-change

Nothing changed. Still the list bugs error and went no further.

So didn't upgrade. I suppose I have to purge list-bugs and it may work,
however, didn't have time, will fool around with it when I do.

Just thought to mention it here.

I don't mind installing bullseye from scratch if need be, as has been
done and preferred many previous Debian distro's before.

I'm wondering if the failures of apt-listbugs are related to the
failure of the bugs.debian.org web site.  It's gotta be related, right?

In your particular case, the clear answer is to disable apt-listbugs
at least temporarily.

Yes you are right, just got back to it, and bugs.debian.org must have
come back with whatever changes were required, and listbugs worked
again and everything upgraded. I must have been a bit premature.

Good call Greg. Thank you.
