Hi, I currently have some 8.2 and 8.3 servers which I cannot upgrade to 9.0 yet. I am looking at building packages with Poudriere and pkgng for these 8.2/8.3 servers. My question is this: do I need to create separate 8.2 and 8.3 jails on Poudriere and build discreet packages for each of these minor releases, or will packages built for a given 8.X release run on any 8.Y release? In other words, are there any compilation/repackaging requirements of ports/packages when one upgrades from one minor version number to the next? Thanks, -Martin
