Hello list, I installed the new release 6.2 on my workstation. I installed also portaudit and run it immediatly afterwards. What have I to see? 5 vulnerable packages in my release. My questions: - Why can I update FreeBSD with security-patches and the Release-Packages have no security-patches? - What are then the advantages of release-packages/ports to current-ports if I can not update release-packages with security-patches? - Is an security-patch-update-system for release-packages/ports planned? With regards Stevan Tiefert
