>Description:
on "24.2.3 Major and Minor Upgrades" of the handbook, I believe at the end it requests you do an extra step which is 'freebsd-update install' for a last time to tie up all loose ends.

I'm sorry if this is there to ever tie up loose ends but when i tried to do it, i got the result that my freebsd version was the newest, or such.
>How-To-Repeat:
Respectfully, go through the steps of upgrading from 7.2-Release to 7.3-Release.
>Fix:
Edit the website to remove the extra step.
