With this broad selection of packages and its traditional widearchitecture support, Debian once again stays true to its goal of beingThe Universal Operating System. It is suitable for many differentuse cases: from desktop systems to netbooks; from development servers tocluster systems; and for database, web, and storage servers. At the sametime, additional quality assurance efforts like automatic installation andupgrade tests for all packages in Debian's archive ensure that bookwormfulfills the high expectations that users have of a stable Debian release.
A total of nine architectures are officially supported for bookworm:
The Debian Cloud team publishes bookworm for several cloud computingservices:
Between releases, the Technical Committee resolved that Debian bookwormshould support only the merged-usr root filesystem layout, dropping supportfor the non-merged-usr layout. For systems installed as buster or bullseyethere will be no changes to the filesystem; however, systems using the olderlayout will be converted during the upgrade.

Before upgrading your system, it is strongly recommended that you make afull backup, or at least back up any data or configuration information youcan't afford to lose. The upgrade tools and process are quite reliable, buta hardware failure in the middle of an upgrade could result in a severelydamaged system.The main things you'll want to back up are the contents of /etc,/var/lib/dpkg, /var/lib/apt/extended_states and the output of:$ dpkg --get-selections '*' # (the quotes are important)We welcome any information from users related to the upgrade from bullseyeto bookworm. Please share information by filing a bug in theDebianbug tracking system using the upgrade-reports package with your results.
It is advisable to remove bullseye-backports entries from APT source-listfiles before the upgrade; after the upgrade consider adding bookworm-backports.For bookworm, the security suite is named bookworm-security; usersshould adapt their APT source-list files accordingly when upgrading.If your APT configuration also involves pinning or APT::Default-Release,it is likely to require adjustments to allow the upgrade of packages to the newstable release. Please consider disabling APT pinning.
Possible issues during the upgrade includeConflicts or Pre-Depends loops which can be solved by removing and eliminatingsome packages or forcing the re-installation of other packages. Additionalconcerns are Could not perform immediate configuration ... errors for whichone will need to keep both bullseye (that was just removed) andbookworm (that was just added) in the APT source-list file, andFile Conflicts which may require one to forcibly remove packages.As mentioned, backing the system up is the key to a smooth upgrade should anyuntoward errors occur.
We were looking at updating all our software and architecture as everything is extremely outdated. We updated to Debian 12 bookworm but ran into issues with our application only supporting up to mono 5.x
but whenever I try to do an apt install mono-devel or mono-complete it always defaults to installing 6.8. I believe this is due to the debian bookworm repo having the same priority and the same package as the mono repo but at a later version.
I fully understand that those who are using OS as desktop should stick with the clean installation in order to avoid problems. But what about us who are using the OS headless as server. We should be able to upgrade to bookworm without further implications. As we did with bullseye.
Hi,
on raspi zero w and bookworm I cannot activate dwc2 for usb gadget mode any more. Can anyone confirm? Help appreciated. Thanks Heiko
I comment #otg_mode=1 and add dtoverlay=dwc2 in config.txt and add dwc2 module in /etc/modules.
-> Just found a workaround. Editing /boot/firmware/config.txt instead of /boot/config.txt does resolve the problem.
So amprolla seems to interpret 'testing' in the sources of an up to date Daedalus installation as overlaying onto Debian 'stable' at this in between time. If you take a Daedalus installation and change the sources from 'daedalus' to 'testing', nothing much happens. If you take a Bookworm installation and change the sources from 'bookworm' to 'testing', you get about 80 new packages as testing is already starting to track the release-to-be-named-trixie.
Click on the letters you want to use to create a word. You can only select adjacent letters. Once you have formed the word you had in mind, click on submit and Lex the bookworm will eat the letter tiles you selected. New letters will be provided so there are always new options to explore.
In the original version, bonus words were displayed beneath Lex the bookworm starting from round 2. Forming these bonus words boosted your score. This feature is unfortunately removed from the version we currently have on our website.
I am trying to install QGIS on Debian testing (i.e., version 12, codename 'bookworm') following the standard instructions provided on -ubuntu.However, I get dependencies problems with a few packages (see snapshot below).
If you are involved in this forum thread, note that dietpi-software installs PHP-FPM, the nowadays common way to run production PHP applications, instead of the basically deprecated Apache PHP module. So instead of a2enmod php8.2 (8.2 on Bookworm) and what they are trying there, it is a2enconf php8.2-fpm and e.g. checking the related service journalctl -u php8.2-fpm. The `dietpi-bookworm-upgrade` script however does this automatically as part of the software reinstalls.
Starting 2023-02-12, only small, targeted fixes are appropriate forbookworm. We want maintainers to focus on small, targeted fixes. This ismainly at the maintainers discretion, there will be no hard rule that will beenforced.
Packages that are not in testing will not be allowed to migrate to testing.This applies to new packages as well as to packages that were removed fromtesting (either manually or by auto-removals). Packages that are not in bookwormat the start of the soft freeze will not be in the release.
Please note that packages that are in bookworm at the start of the soft freezecan still be removed if they are buggy. This can happen manually or by theauto-removals. Once packages are removed, they will not be allowed to comeback.
