It's missing for 13.0-RELEASE quarterly, please add a PR on bugzilla to notify maintainer. > Does it make sense for a stable environment to switch to latest instead? That's your call to make. How frequently do you run `pkg upgrade` etc? what would happen if something breaks? All I can say for quarterly vs latest packages is, how much "many small changes but maybe occasionally broken" are you prepared to accommodate vs a much larger change once a quarter? If you have a problem during upgrading how easy is it to roll back for you to the preceding version? I'd suggest you switch to /latest/ for another 2 months, and worst case in March you can switch back to quarterly when its synced again off latest anyway. Since the rise of systemd & switching from debian to FreeBSD in early 10-CURRENT era, I've run latest packages, then added own pkg build infrastructure too. A+ Dave
