Fetching metadata signature for 8.4-RELEASE from update6.freebsd.org... done. Fetching metadata index... done. Inspecting system... done. Preparing to download files... done. The following files will be added as part of updating to 8.4-RELEASE-p18: /usr/src/share/zoneinfo/leap-seconds.list /usr/src/share/zoneinfo/zone1970.tab The following files will be updated as part of updating to 8.4-RELEASE-p18: /boot/kernel/linker.hints /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Bamako /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Banjul /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Conakry /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Dakar /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Freetown /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Lome /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Nouakchott /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Ouagadougou /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Sao_Tome /usr/share/zoneinfo/Atlantic/St_Helena /usr/share/zoneinfo/Pacific/Johnston --- # freebsd-update install Installing updates...install: ///usr/src/share/zoneinfo/leap-seconds.list: No such file or directory install: ///usr/src/share/zoneinfo/zone1970.tab: No such file or directory done. --- I had more or less the same problem on another server, this one running 10.0-RELEASE-p10 Release. In that case, following what I'd read on the FreeBSD forum, I simply removed src from the "Components" in freebsd-update.conf, since after checking I saw that /usr/src was empty. On the other server though, running FreeBSD 8.4-RELEASE-p16, I saw that the directory is not empty: du -h src/ 6.0k src/etc/pkg 8.0k src/etc 6.0k src/share/keys/pkg/trusted 10k src/share/keys/pkg 14k src/share/keys 16k src/share 26k src/ --- Would it be safe to remove the src component from freebsd-update.conf here as well or should I keep that? Thank you very much for your help, Francesco
