Since the comparison is with uname -U like results instead of with uname -K like results, should the "- running kernel:" be worded to not mislead about the type of version it is reporting? I'll also note that if pkgbase gets/has the ability to do just one of kernel vs. world in a given use, then there would be other ways for a uname -K vs. uname -U mismatches. > Why the uname binary? because it is the only binary which is rebuilds = each time > sys/param.h is updated for uname -U. >=20 > The problem when sys/param.h is updated crt1.o is not being update and = this is > where the elf notes is added from. meaning with incremental build the = note is > never updated :( If crtl.o ends up being updated, how much will rebuild via (indirectly) depending on crtl.o ?
