Debian 13

Caution Upgrading from Debian 12 to Debian 13 on machines with mdadm has intermittently failed for me; symptom is that grub EFI is not up to date and system boots into BIOS. Root cause under investigation; it might not be related to mdadm.

To start, read the official release notes.

If your install fits into "vanilla Debian plus maybe a handful of 3rd-party repos", then this guide for a simple upgrade to Debian 13 "trixie" from Debian 12 "bookworm" can be helpful. 3rd-party repos are handled with a find command.

Note upgrade is only supported from Debian 12 to Debian 13. If you are on Debian 11, upgrade to Debian 12 first. Then once on Debian 12, you can upgrade to Debian 13.

I created a gist which can patch Scarf Analytics (@scarf/scarf on npm) with this Gist that replaces this lib on postinstall because NPM/Yarn gives you an ability to install any gist or repository like any package to node_modules folder.

Before you install it, delete @scarf/scarf folder in your local project node_modules folder if present (probably you are using some of this packages) or if you are going to install any of those packages in your current project.

Install mock version from Gist instead of local project version which sends your data with this commands depending of what package manager you use:

npm install --save-dev gist:bd5c18861b76eb34f068bf2ed7de903e
yarn add gist:bd5c18861b76eb34f068bf2ed7de903e --dev
pnpm install --save-dev gist:bd5c18861b76eb34f068bf2ed7de903e
