freebsd-update: No updates needed to update system to 13.3-RELEASE-p8.
Date: Sat, 10 May 2025 15:39:13 UTC
I'm trying to update my system running 13.3-RELEASE-p7 using freebsd-update, but I'm confused as to what it is saying: # freebsd-update fetch src component not installed, skipped Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 3 mirrors found. Fetching metadata signature for 13.3-RELEASE from update2.freebsd.org... done. Fetching metadata index... done. Inspecting system... done. Preparing to download files... done. No updates needed to update system to 13.3-RELEASE-p8. WARNING: FreeBSD 13.3-RELEASE-p7 HAS PASSED ITS END-OF-LIFE DATE. Any security issues discovered after Wed Jan 1 01:00:00 CET 2025 will not have been corrected. So, it is telling me that no updates are needed to update to p8 while at the same time warning about still running p7. The warning would not have been needed if I had to do nothing but it doesn't tell me what to do to get to p8. Please advice as I'm confused... Rody
