Newer FreeBSD version for package breaks binary updates

Hi Bapt,

I can't get binary updates anymore, because:

pkg: Newer FreeBSD version for package ....:
- package: 1200055
- running kernel: 1200054
pkg: repository FreeBSD contains packages for wrong OS version:
FreeBSD:12:amd64


Am I misunderstanding this, or does this mean that pkg forces me to
update my system before I can install any package updates (even super
small ones). This seems like a bad idea that potentially will break many
deployments/workflows.

Thanks,
Michael
