            Bug ID: 197308
           Summary: Improve feedback of freebsd-update at failure of
                    release upgrade
           Product: Base System
           Version: 9.2-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---

          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: krichter at posteo.de

Invoking `freebsd-update upgrade` can fail with the very unspecific error
message `Fetching 2 metadata files... failed`. The user should be informed
about the reason for the failure (network failure, network timeout, remote file
not available, etc.)

    # freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.3-RELEASE
    Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 5 mirrors found.
    Fetching metadata signature for 9.2-RELEASE from update6.freebsd.org...
done.
    Fetching metadata index... done.
    Fetching 2 metadata files... failed.
