I and others reported that when FreeBSD-base is not enabled, "pkg upgrade -r FreeBSD-base" does not do the pkg update part of the activity (as if a -U was present if it was an enabled repository). This prevents "pkg upgrade -r FreeBSD-base" doing any upgrade that would depend on the pkg update results. In other words, only enabled repositories get the implicit pkg update activity, even when the -r REPONAME is supplied. I've been manually initially doing the sequence: Edit to have FreeBSD-base enabled pkg-static update -rFreeBSD-base Edit to have FreeBSD-base disabled > With hat: re > MFC after: 8 hours (needed in 15.0-RC1) > . . . === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.comhelp
