Currently freebsd-update fails in the following manner for unsupported $ARCH's: # freebsd-update fetch Fetching public key from http://update6.freebsd.org failed. In order to improve the user experience, and provide additional context/information for particular failure scenarios, freebsd-update(8) should support returning messaging for errors/notifications/warnings from the server. This would also allow for a much better user experience in additional situations, such as when the service is experiencing issues, during maintenance and for other uses we cant think of yet. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
