This seems to also be an announcement of a change to what the 15.0 draft release notes ( https://www.freebsd.org/releases/15.0R/relnotes/ ) have said: QUOTE FreeBSD Update is probably not going to exist in 15.0-RELEASE! The text below is boilerplate from previous releases and should be replaced with instructions for using pkgbase once those are finalized. END QUOTE It would be good for the draft to have its "probably" status for this switched at some point. === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
