Hi,

Will freebsd-install upgrade tell you, if any libraries version numbers =
got bumped, and thus if installed packages needs rebuilding?

I followed the handbook and did the 8.0-RELEASE to 8.1-RELEASE upgrade =
like:

freebsd-update -r 8.1-RELEASE upgrade
freebsd-update install
shutdown -r now
freebsd-update install

And then:

portupgrade -af
freebsd-update install
shutdown -r now

But was this last round of rebuilding installed ports etc. really =
needed? Or would the second "freebsd-update install" have told me if it =
was? In any case, the last "freebsd-update install" did nothing.

Have a nice weekend all.

Kind regards,
