Older releases are not supported and may or may not work correctly with an up-to-date ports collection." By the description alone, it doesn't describe that it supports -RELEASE or -RELEASE-p# systems. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Rephrase the above statement at the above URL to include -RELEASE systems. Maybe a phrasing similar to: "The Ports Collection supports the latest release on the FreeBSD-CURRENT, FreeBSD-STABLE branches and FreeBSD-RELEASE under the production release major versions. Older releases are not supported and may or may not work correctly with an up-to-date ports collection." >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
