Which is a kernel patch, not a world patch. One could ima= gine some patches that involve both.

Or neither. Maybe we publish ena or some subset of module= s as sys-net-drivers, if we so choose.

How are PkgBase users to know the status relative to such= a description that is based on a git Hash and Revision?

The format of our advisories will need to change for a pk= gbase world. I don=E2=80=99t know how exactly that will work, but it seem= s reasonable that we may need to include pkgbase revision information as = part of an SA/EN.

Another possibility is that specific FreeBSD--14.snap= .pkg names might instead be listed for PkgBase identification. A Pkg= Base build can be made up with a mix of .snap*.pkg suffixes across the va= rious *.pkg files involved. And there are hundreds of *.pkg files. So com= parisons could be messy to deal with.

Has the technique for this subject area been decided yet?= If yes, what is the intended technique?
