X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 03 Aug 2006 23:19:52 -0000 Hi -- I'm currently running 6.0-SECURITY My portsnap tells me of a bunch of ports that have updates that, when I head directly for an ftp site, I find on a STABLE tree (like kde-3.5.3 - actually 3.5.2 until yesterday) For instance, ftp://ftp2.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6.0-release/x11/ lists kde-3.4.2.tbz Can I install these on RELEASE? If not, why does portsnap even suggest them? TIA. HL.
