With bookworm hitting the market this month, I'm thinking about upgrading the 2oFB VM. It runs Debian 11 bullseye currently, notice that I have a few packages NOT in Debain:
-----
xxx@xxx:~/mystic$ hostnamectl
Static hostname: xxx
Icon name: computer-vm
Chassis: vm
Machine ID: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Boot ID: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Virtualization: kvm
Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)
Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-23-amd64
Architecture: x86-64
xxx@xxx:~/mystic$ sudo apt list '?narrow(?installed, ?not(?origin(Debian)))' Listing... Done
comcom32/now 20220924-1 amd64 [installed,local]
proxmox-backup-client/stable,now 2.4.1-1 amd64 [installed]
rar/now 2:5.5.0-1 amd64 [installed,local]
tailscale-archive-keyring/unknown,now 1.35.181 all [installed,automatic]
tailscale/unknown,now 1.44.0 amd64 [installed]
unrar/now 1:5.6.6-1 amd64 [installed,local]
-----
comcom32 is for dosemu and rar is also needed...
I *think* tailscale and proxmox-backup-client will have bookworm packages that I can pull down by editing my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ files for them.
Will comcom32 and rar 'come over' when I upgrade to bookworm?
Has anyone else upgraded their Debian 11 -> 12 on their BBS machine?
Any suggestions?
My plan is to pull the BBS down, create a backup even tho I have dailies... and then change all my sources.list (and /sources.list.d/) from 'bullseye' to 'bookworm' - and adding the new debian "non-free-firmware" on the end of all sources... I'll do a minimal upgrade:
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade --without-new-pkgs
After which I'll perform the upgrade and reboot:
sudo apt full-upgrade
sudo reboot now
Finally, I'll purge the system:
sudo apt --purge autoremove
Did I miss anything, or do you see me having issues with those packages listed in the commands at the top?
