            Bug ID: 272568
           Summary: security/heimdal docs: pkg-message refers to entry no
                    longer found in /usr/ports/UPDATING
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)

The pkg-message for security/heimdal mentions a kerberos database upgrade w=
hich
must be done if base-system heimdal users wish to upgrade to heimdal from t=
he
ports.

The pkg-message says: "Please read 20161112 in /usr/ports/UPDATING carefull=
y to
upgrade your database."  But the UPDATING entry from 20161112 no longer exi=
sts
-- it was trimmed as part of regular maintenance on or about 12 May 2023,
looking at the git-logs for the UPDATING file.

Perhaps the heimdal database upgrade instructions could be placed into the =
port
directory?  Text in pkg-message referring to the UPDATING entry could be
replaced with the instructions themselves.

Thanks all,

--MCV.
