i installed debian with KDE for a friend years ago... is there a way to upgrade to bookworm using the "discover" GUI? or are they going to have to edit /etc/apt/sources.list?

not they they are incapable of doing something simple like this, but just wondering if there is a GUI method to do a full version upgrade

thanks

I don't think you can. Editing a single file every few years really isn't a big deal. A dedicated GUI app would be nice but I doubt any developer is going to make it unless Debian hit big with desktop home users.
