https://pastebin.com/raw/uYpta9eU for my sources.list comparison. I'll
do a backup, use bookworm v12's sources.list, time sudo apt-get clean &&
time sudo apt-get update && time sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, reboot, etc.
Will this be OK? I read
https://www.debian.org/releases/bookworm/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html
too.

http://zimage.com/~ant/antfarm/about/MyComputerStuff.txt for my setup
(secondary PC is the one with Debian). Thank you for reading and
hopefully answering soon so I can try it later this week. :)

You’re missing non-free-firmware.

Codename is changed and non-free-firmware is available and can be used
if needed in the sources.list.

Do you really need the dev-src lines to retrieve source code?
If not, disable them, so they are not being checked every time apt
update runs.

Don't I need them for source codes to compile stuff when binary packages don't exist?

The source packages contain the source code from which the binary
packages were built.

I meant for programs that don't have Debian packages like old BitchX and others.

For those the deb-src repos are unsuitable.

Interesting. Hmm, I need to remove their packages if they were
downloaded. How do I determine if they were downloaded and installed? I
already upgraded to Bookworm last night with very few issues.

They weren't. Don't worry about it.

You need them for retrieving source code of the debian packages. Those
packages are also available as binaries.

If you need to compile source code from elsewhere, you need compiler
tools, but those are in the normal binary repo and not in deb-src.
