--i483Pv/KqyjCUwB1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable When I rebuild FreeBSD (stable/12) on my laptop, I also rebuild a ports module (x11/nvidia-driver), since the laptop has an Nvidia graphics card. However, a couple of times within the last few days, the kernel build has failed because I normally wait to update ports until after I have built and rebooted the newly-built base OS... and "?ports" includes ports-mgmt/pkg. In each case (so far), I have then updated ports-mgmt/pkg, then re-started the base OS build/install. I believe that it would be helpful to have an UPDATING entry reflect that "evasive action" is required when MINIMAL_PKG_VERSION is bumped. Or, perhaps, I'm going about this all wrong...? If so, please let me know a better way. Thanks. Peace, david --=20 David H. Wolfskill david@catwhisker.org Donald Trump is just in it for the publicity (well, and the money).
