Does that mean that the default: pkg+https://pkgbase.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:armv7/base_release_0/ (or whatever the details) will not work? Will that be documented/handled someplace? Will armv7 folks wanting to try pkgbase need to cause the use of the likes of: pkg+https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:armv7/base_release_0/ instead? (kmods_latest_0 and kmodes_quarterly_0 too.) === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
