The common response to this is that it's in the handbook. I'm trying to find it there, though, and am having a lot of trouble. "upgrade" and "patch" search terms don't find it. There is some mention of using cvsup in "Cutting edge", but given the title I don't think that's what is recommended for everyone. I could just be missing the magic search keyword for this, though. Maybe someone here has it? In any case, I believe you can run cvsup, using the example file /usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile , using the tag RELENG_5_4 . I'm not exactly sure what the official patch recommendation is though.
