Personally, I never upgrade build chroots between major versions.  I
just use a tool like sbuild-createchroot to create them from scratch.
That's mainly because I need to keep the Buster chroot around for
backports, so I'll just create a new Bullseye chroot when I need it.

And of course my unstable chroot is continuously being upgraded but
that avoids most of the concerns people have about the Debian N to N+1
stable upgrade path.

So on my "pet" production systems (on my "cattle" systems I just
recreate them from scratch, e.g. "gce-xfstests create-image"[1] which
uses deboostrap), what I do is update /etc/apt/sources.list, and then
do "apt update ; apt-get install dpkg ; apt-get install apt" before I
run "apt-get dist-upgrade".  This handles the dependencies for me, and
while a few packages will get upgraded using the old dpkg and apt, the
vast majority of the packages will get upgraded using the latest
stable version of dpkg and apt.  This seems like relatively cheap
insurance; it doesn't hurt, and it might help avoid some nasty corner
cases that got overlooked during testing.

Well, I'll observe that if we told people to upgrade dpkg and apt
first using "apt-get install ...", this automatically handles the
dependencies, and while it doesn't make *all* of the potential issues
go away, I would think it would reduce the potential corner cases and
hence make it easier to test to make sure the right thing happens on
an update from Debian vN to vN+1, would it not?

... and in my opinion, that's a *fine* strategy.  Sure, it would be
nice if "apt dist-upgrade" always worked smoothly, and that's a great
aspirational goal, but if we can reduce risks to users ---
particularly non-technical/non-expert users --- by using a release
upgrader which upgrades apt and dpkg first, we should do that.  So
let's take a page from Ubuntu, by all means!
