I'm trying to upgrade my 10.4p13 server to 11.2, and I'm getting a weird set of errors from freebsd-update. After updating to latest set of patches for 10.4, I run the usual:
freebsd-update upgrade -r 11.2-RELEASE
It goes through its process, downloads patches, etc but I get some errors I'm not sure about:

The following file will be removed, as it no longer exists in
FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE: /etc/autofs/include_nis
Does this look reasonable (y/n)? n
I'm not sure what is causing those no such file or directory errors though. I tried cleaning everything out of /var/db/freebsd-update, but they didn't solve it. There's plenty of disk space in /var as well.
Does anyone know what is causing those errors and how to resolve it? Where does freebsd-update get the .gz files it could be looking for?
