upgrading 2021.06

[molens]

I downloaded (semi-)rolling version 2021.06 and installed it. Then I get Sparky 6.0. Is this still (semi-) rolling or not? When not how can I upgrade to (semi-) rolling version?

Did you read the 6.0 announcement?
https://sparkylinux.org/sparky-6-0-po-tolo/

Sparky 6 "Po Tolo" has been moved from rolling to stable automatically.

and upgrading to new testing 7 line:

Thank you Pavroo. I already voted on Distrowatch with the highest number 10. For me is Sparky Linux the best distro there is. I installed various distributions, but come every time back to Sparky Linux. I mentioned Sparky in my blog:https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/2810515875955634187/5153499893088391316. Keep up the good work guys!!

Why the sparky-welcome still shows Sparkylinux 6? I have upgraded it to Sparky7.

No, it's Sparky rolling (upcoming 7).

I tried today after installing Rolling 21.06 to change sources.list from Bullseye to Orion but I can not save it. How can I save it in Libre Office?

[pavroo]

You have to do that as super user.
Do not do it with LibreOffice, use any text editor with sudo, or run APTus Appcenter-> APTUS tab->
- Edit main repository-> sources.list
- then Edit custom repository-> sparky.list
