Colleagues, I have been updating 6.2-RELEASE with freebsd-update. Recently I upgraded it to RELENG_6_3 from source. Can I continue using freebsd-update or must I upgrade only from source from now on? I conducted an experiment and got inconclusive results. I had upgraded to RELENG_6_3-p2 where the problems with libpthread and ssh are already fixed. However, when I ran freebsd-update, it did replace libpthread and libssh. It also replaced the kernel, downgrading it from 6.3-RELEASE-p2 to 6.3-RELEASE-p1! Does it mean that freebsd-update is not recommended after upgrade from source? -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN sip:sudakov@sibptus.tomsk.ru
