Right? If so the answer is that official packages for 12.x are built on 12.2-RELEASE. If you build and install bash on 12.3-RELEASE or after 12.2-RELEASE reachs its EoL, the result will change such as following. # set | grep -i freebsd BASH_VERSINFO=([0]="5" [1]="1" [2]="12" [3]="0" [4]="release" [5]="amd64-portbld-freebsd12.3") MACHTYPE=amd64-portbld-freebsd12.3 OSTYPE=freebsd12.3 --- Yasuhiro Kimura
