--- Comment #9 from Colin Percival <cperciva@FreeBSD.org> ---
Sounds to me like everything is as it should be?  FreeBSD Update deliberately
avoids shipping new kernels when the only thing which has changed is the
version number -- I designed it in 2003 when many people were still on dialup
and I didn't want people to be downloading tens of MB unnecessarily.

A 14.3-RELEASE-p5 kernel is exactly the same as a 14.3-RELEASE-p7 kernel aside
from the embedded version number, since p6 didn't touch the kernel and p7 only
touches kernel modules and not the main kernel binary.
