            Bug ID: 264075
           Summary: freebsd-update in 13.1-RELEASE detects an installed
                    kernel when it shouldn't
           Product: Base System
           Version: 13.1-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bjfilipek@gmail.com

Normally when running freebsd-update on a jail using the -b switch it should
not detect a kernel in that folder (because there isn't one). However, the
version of freebsd-update in 13.1-RELEASE detects a kernel and wants to install
files to /boot/kernel in the jail.

Steps to reproduce:
1.) Install FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE (Reproduced this on both ARM and AMD64)
2.) Create a folder and extract an older version of base.txz to it, for example
the base.txz from 13.0-RELEASE
3.) freebsd-update -b /path/to/the/jail --currently-running 13.0-RELEASE -r
13.1-RELEASE
4.) freebsd-update will detect world/base as it should but also detects
kernel/generic even though a kernel was not installed to the folder. This
behavior did not happen on older versions of freebsd-update.
5.) Unless you don't mind it installing files to /boot/kernel in each jail, you
need to use a separate freebsd-update.conf file with the components line set to
 "world" and omit the "kernel"
