I learned a lot from it. I took the plunge and first did a minor upgrade from 10.1 to 10.3. Then the major upgrade to 11.0 (following the handbook). Initially everything looked fine (website up and running!). But then some problems came up: - different versions op php are installed - gkrellmd won't start (libkvm.so.6 not found) - (and this is the worst) pkg doesn't work: libssl.so.7 not found Installed version is pkg-1.10.0_2. pkg-static info works but still gives the message: Warning: Major OS version upgrade detected. Running "pkg-static install -f pkg" recommended During the forced upgrade of all packages I saw that an attempt was made to downgrade pkg to 1.9.something and I also saw that a POST_INSTALL failed for some reason. Any recommendations? Thanks again for your help!
