Hello: I have a system running: FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT #0 main-f0a15aafcb Mon Oct 31 08:19:54 EDT 2022 amd64 I want to bring current using source. In the past, I did so using the instructions at the bottom of src/UPDATING. Now, however, there's this: To rebuild everything and install it on the current system. ----------------------------------------------------------- # Note: sometimes if you are running current you gotta do more than # is listed here if you are upgrading from a really old current. But I also remember a semi-recent thread (may have been on current@) that calls into question whether this is still the correct procedure to use. 1) did that thread ever come to a decision? 2) if src/UPDATING is stil authoritative? 3) if so, is this system so old I "gotta do more"? 4) if so, where do I find instructions? Respectfully, Robert Huff
