Updating with freebsd-update or through src (buildworld/buildkernel) are done in two steps. 1. Updating the kernel, this is done first, this is also why you are told to reboot after an upgrade, so the new kernel can be loaded. However, this is only the kernel, not the "world" (in generic terms, the world is the userspace, if you are more familiar with Linux think of kernel as Linux (package) and world as glibc/coreutils/systemd etc), which is why you must do the next step: 2. Updating world, this is done by executing freebsd-update install after the reboot, this will install the pending upgrade. After this you should reboot again. Then your system is entirely upgraded. If you would like to see if there is pending upgrades to install use: freebsd-update updatesready For more information about all of these commands please read the short but concise freebsd-update(8) manual page.
