(In reply to Yuri Victorovich from comment #3)

One can also use --currently-running <release>, which is a new command line
frontend for the previously environment-based variable (UNAME_r) override u=
sed
to 'fake' the current versions. From man freebsd-update:

     --currently-running release
                    Do not detect the currently-running release; instead,
                    assume that the system is running the specified release.
                    This is most likely to be useful when upgrading jails.

This issue ("fetching key ... failed") is a frequently asked question/repor=
ted
issue. It would be great to improve the error/messaging and user experience=
 for
these cases.
