On a host running Testing, I got the message below this morning:

Unpacking dpkg (1.21.8) over (1.21.7) ...
Setting up dpkg (1.21.8) ...
dpkg: warning: unknown dpkg database file /var/lib/dpkg/format is not a 
misplaced alternative state... leaving as is
dpkg-db-backup.service is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting 
it.

No amount of googling told me what the line about /var/lib/dpkg/format means or 
whether this is something to worry about. This probably needs to be documented, 
especially if it's expected to appear during an upgrade from Bullseye to 
Bookworm.
