The Debian project has taken the decision in 2022-10 to create a new repository component non-free-firmware, and include its content on installation media for the upcoming Debian release bookworm to make things easier for our users.
From Firmware – Debian Wiki
So people like me that installed Debian several years ago keeping it updated shall add to their /etc/apt/sources.list
a non-free-firmware
component, like this:
deb <a href="http://deb.debian.org/debian/">http://deb.debian.org/debian/</a> bookworm main non-free contrib non-free-firmware<br>deb-src <a href="http://deb.debian.org/debian/">http://deb.debian.org/debian/</a> bookworm main non-free contrib non-free-firmware<br><br>deb <a href="http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/">http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/</a> bookworm-security main non-free contrib non-free-firmware<br>deb-src <a href="http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/">http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/</a> bookworm-security main non-free contrib non-free-firmware
