True, this is the best way forwards. However for people that cannot, for whatever reasons, do that straight away, they should be able to maintain their systems reasonably well. Except that they will have to do themselves a lot of what is done communally by the project for the supported versions. > You are just asking for trouble trying to run software on an obsoleted > base system version. In this case, with openat(2) being in libc in 10.3 and successors, but not in 10.1, there will be an increasing disparity between software compiled for 10.3 and trying to run on a 10.1 system. So you'ld have to build your own packages. Even so, as the ports no longer supports earlier than 10.3, you'll find various compile problems edging in. Those you can workaround by locally patching your ports tree. pkg(8) itself is known to compile and work on OS versions back to 8.x. In short: it's a lot less effort just to upgrade.
