https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=293390 --- Comment #5 from Lexi Winter <ivy@FreeBSD.org> --- it's fine to show a supported workaround. for example, the text could say something like "There is no official pkgbase upgrade path from 14 to 15, the supported workaround is to backup and reinstall" (or depkgbasify, or whatever). what the text musn't say is that this is *required* to upgrade from 14 to 15, because it's not. we don't (and cannot) require our users to only follow supported operational procedures. it's the difference between "you can't do X" and "we don't support doing X". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
