charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi, I recently upgraded a vm from 12.2-p7 to 13.0-p4 with freebsd-update. % sudo du -sh /var/db/freebsd-update/ 1.5G /var/db/freebsd-update/ I thought it's a relatively large chunk of space to have just for that. Then had a look at a system that had been in existence since 2017-10-11 when it ran 12.0-current as it was then (r324534) that had by 2019-09-09 been upgraded to 12.0-RELEASE-p10 (r352201) and was from then on updated with freebsd-update, at intervals, all the way from 12.1-RELEASE-p1 through to 12.2-RELEASE-p7 and from there to 13.0-RELEASE-p3 and now to=20 13.0-RELEASE-p4 $ sudo du -sh /var/db/freebsd-update 5.8G /var/db/freebsd-update this is a huge amount of space, as the vm is 64GB. What can I do to free=20 up the space without breaking freebsd-update? I guess it's the update histo= ry but couldn't find anything in the manpage on how to maintain it with regards to size. thanks, --=20 J. --+sksH81NBMqYQD2f Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEE8n3tWhxW11Ccvv9/s8o7QhFzNAUFAmHTSIEACgkQs8o7QhFz NAW3XRAAqWLpa4FIj2NdMecbPRFBKHfW7j2kblbgU+n3QH/ukqy/21GBJfFp4qKa q3UbauJHjnKozI8eGuii8OXU3ndw3L5Qmj3TnA77DVGfd/gkqxrQsZ1mb8/butBn FGeYr03iZxe8N9loVOnEsTUnK9nJsn2eSxMoKbpyakMryJiS+iPSpRCp8KyPJijS 3o//Ij8LwEguSW7Ejv9V854azXKhMkXjaEpccotHYyGpS/NIqL7K+jMKH6yExW7X rHG5jmEXdJVYAdjMzaZD8FVepzM+rFwMdU6GL45VjXdMv1x3no8V1SbPOMhxxYO3 /jrURLUFuSSWXmJn2sIU1X7H4faySzvRuiMrklLrnUqrEyC0rDNKqQGk4wqNrI62 2su9oQ4T+p46wksX5xQjYNNsUx44mhrvFhTYjAgRVmo9+M04V9HE+QEmW1dgG3Hi w7ECCA+w07v3HHzWRjL/ZTVnO6nb/AW0kGwAsrtN9i7eOD+Z/MFm01V6JV3qK827 wRXdJxLgkLTSlkLNakuadv0+3xRrUukJS+/sw3nGAlIIRNhsMoPujDR04LiD6lQc drzGhCW7pRQGTmfFuy30y576L/z8j7ewdHJDWsnvNW8PyK3Z/fRS3nQFnGn4+V54 kXHyj4UStIShthbRw9M0fLwTlvZzEFDX7uh9dbfcn2Scetf4IY8= =+qgJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --+sksH81NBMqYQD2f--
