This is my SOHO server, updated last week:

2021-09-29 12:15:31 toor at f3 ~
# freebsd-version ; uname -a
12.2-RELEASE-p10
FreeBSD f3.tracy.holgerdanske.com 12.2-RELEASE-p7 FreeBSD 
12.2-RELEASE-p7 GENERIC  amd64


Following your advice:

2021-09-29 12:14:10 toor at f3 ~
# freebsd-update install
src component not installed, skipped
No updates are available to install.
Run '/usr/sbin/freebsd-update fetch' first.


Following the error message:
