Hi,
I've been a user of freebsd-update for some time, and it works basically
fine, but since quite some time it annoys me with this message:
| The following files are affected by updates, but no changes have
| been downloaded because the files have been modified locally:
| /etc/mail/freebsd.cf
| /etc/mail/freebsd.submit.cf
| /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
| /etc/mail/submit.cf
| /var/db/mergemaster.mtree
How do I get these files back in a state that freebsd-update doesn't
complain about?
I don't care about loosing changes. But even extensive googling has not
helped me find an answer on how to restore those files to their
"original" state that freebsd-update wants them to be in.
The obvious solution of deleting them and letting freebsd-update install
run did not restore those files.
Please help.
CU,
Sec
