Hi, I'm going through the final tech edits on the jails book, and an early reader raised a pkg question. I want to be sure to give good advice. After an upgrade between releases we need to run pkg upgrade -fy. Is there any advantage to running the upgrade and then a separate force-upgrading, as in: # pkg -j ldap1 upgrade -y && pkg -j ldap1 upgrade -fy My reader reports that they've had SAT solver problems and packages removed when running plain "pkg upgrade -fy" between versions. Just trying to sort out edge cases vs old problems vs serious issues. Thanks, ==ml -- Michael W.
