Hello,
     since the update to 7.0-RELEASE-p6 is available, I have some problems
with freebsd-updates. It tells me that /boot/kernel/linker.hints needs to be
updated and if I install the update, it will tell me again and again that it
needs to be updated.

[root at headless /usr/local/www/apache22/data]# freebsd-update fetch
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 1 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature for 7.0-RELEASE from update1.FreeBSD.org...
done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Inspecting system... done.
Preparing to download files... done.

The following files will be updated as part of updating to 7.0-RELEASE-p6:
/boot/kernel/linker.hints

[root at headless /usr/local/www/apache22/data]# uname -a
FreeBSD headless.mutehq.net 7.0-RELEASE-p6 FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p6 #0: Mon

Any idea of what might be going on?

Thanks!

Gabriel
