That does not work for kmods generally for 15.1-RELEASE use and FreeBSD-ports-kmods has distinct builds for both 15.0-RELEASE and 15.1-RELEASE that can be used for pkgbase contexts by causing the repository url to change appropriately, doing "pkg update" for FreeBSD-ports-kmods and then the pkg upgrade. They are not the builds from the port-package builders. So, at this point, in-sync vs. out-of-sync only applies to 15.0-RELEASE contexts as far as pre-built port-packages go. Personal builds/installs based on ports depend on what and how they were done. -- === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
