Чтобы сделать dist обновление от Sparky 7 до 8, сделайте:

1. Backup your personal files to external disk or partition.

2. Поменять репозитории Debian с bullseye на bookworm в файле:

/etc/apt/sources.list

Должно выглядеть так:

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ trixie-security/updates main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ trixie-security/updates main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie-updates main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie-updates main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb http://deb-multimedia.org/ trixie main non-free

3. Поменяйте Sparky репозитории с orion на sisters в файле:

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/sparky.list

Должно выглядеть так:

deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/sparky.gpg.key] https://repo.sparkylinux.org/ core main
deb-src [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/sparky.gpg.key] https://repo.sparkylinux.org/ core main
deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/sparky.gpg.key] https://repo.sparkylinux.org/ sisters main
deb-src [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/sparky.gpg.key] https://repo.sparkylinux.org/ sisters main

4. Обновить список пакетов:

sudo apt update

5. И обновление дистрибутива:

sudo apt full-upgrade

Если возникнут проблемы:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a
sudo apt install -f
