Dear Maintainer, since bullseye[1] setting APT::Default-Release to a plain codename such as "stable" or "bookworm" will have the disastrous consequence of preventing security updates to be considered when upgrading. The debian-handbook talks about Default-Release at: https://debian-handbook.info/browse/stable/sect.apt-get.html Please update any references to Default-Release to include the advice from the bullseye release-notes at [1]. [1]: https://www.debian.org/releases/bullseye/amd64/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#security-archive Thanks, --Daniel PS: I think this change of debian-security Codename was a collossal mistake and I'm looking into getting this fixed properly by changing the codename to $codename/security but the updated advice should be safe in the face of that change. Thanks, --Daniel
