Yes, that was my question. As my last update was an installation of 5.2.1-RELEASE, I found the date (2004-02-22) in the file pointed by Kris (/usr/share/misc/bsd-family-tree). Now I know that I have to follow every entry in /usr/src/UPDATING dated after this day. > Or how to determine when the last system (kernel+system utilities > upgrade happened? This information will also be useful one day, on the next system upgrade, when I will have to determine which entries in UPDATING are pertaining. "uname -a" seems to give the kernel compilation time. I don't know if there is a way to know the date of the last system upgrade; I sure can mark the day in my agenda. Thanks again. -- Christophe
