I run updates ( freebsd-update fetch install ) and looks like it's fine. 
(reports sucessfull update to new release). I reboot and uname report 
the old version. Any clue?  ( I think it should report "11.4-RELEASE-p13" )
before reboot :
freebsd at xyz:~ % freebsd-version -k ; uname -r
11.4-RELEASE-p9
11.4-RELEASE-p9
After reboot :
freebsd at xyz:~ % sudo freebsd-update fetch install
src component not installed, skipped
