I have two systems running bookworm, a laptop at 12.13 and a desktop at 12.11.
I am still able to update the laptop from bookworm repositories but the desktop

various trixie related values.
At first reading I thought that this would be because you had "stable"
instead of "bookworm" in the /etc/apt/sources.list file. However, you
have since shown us the contents of that file and confirmed that it does
say "bookworm".
Therefore my next guess is that the message about repositories changing
in fact talks about the next bookworm point release, 12.13, and not
anything to do with trixie (which would be 13.x). Can you confirm the
exact wording of the message please?
If that is the case then the solution is as Andrew Cater mentioned: use
"apt update" and it will prompt you to accept the change to the new
point release of bookworm.
If that's not the case and it really is offering to upgrade you to
trixie then I am at a loss as to how, since you have showed us a
sources.list that is still on bookworm. Possibly there is some other
repository below /etc/.apt/sources.list.d/.
Thanks,
Andy
The desktop is down right now so this is not exact, but the "Version"
says 12 -> 13 and "Codename" says trixie.
