Screenshot: two windows, FreeBSD Handbook to the right, some Diigo annotations

Briefly


Given the advice in the window to the left (yesterday's email), visualise this
scenario: 

a) kernel and world already upgraded from 12.4-RELEASE to
   13.2-RC3

b) a recommended rebuild and install of all applications

c) shutdown -r now

d) freebsd-update install    to remove stale files

– I see no problem with this.

Given the advice to the right (the Handbook) and the same scenario: 

a) kernel and world already upgraded from 12.4-RELEASE to
   13.2-RC3

b) pkg-static upgrade -f     using an infrastructure that does 
                             not yet have any 13.2⋯-based jail 
                             for build purposes

c) freebsd-update install    to tie up loose ends

d) reboot                    to the same version of the OS
                             (not a new version).
