As I understand it, freebsd-update only provides updates for -RELEASEs, =
and, as far as I know, there haven't been any official -RELEASEs for =
FreeBSD/arm.  (I checked the 9.1-RELEASE announcement and it was only =
available for the "amd64, i386, powerpc64, and sparc64 architectures."  =
Needless to say, there hasn't been a 10-RELEASE yet, and I don't know if =
freebsd-update will do downgrades.)

Remember, -CURRENT is bleeding edge, and so mechanisms like =
freebsd-update aren't designed to cope with its development cycle.

Cheers,

Paul.=
