Thank you for your thoughtful suggestion, Mark.
It returns:
FreeBSD fbsd12dev 12.1-STABLE FreeBSD 12.1-STABLE r363918 GENERIC amd64
amd64 1201522 1201522
Is that bad?
Thanks for the reply, Jonathan.
You're running 12.1, and not -STABLE. The EOL for 12.1 was Nov-2019.
Odd. It _says_ it's the STABLE branch.
You need to get a later version or run -STABLE (ie: build from source
off the stable/12 branch).
It _was_ built from the stable/12 branch. All be it a good while ago.
I guess I've somehow lost my understanding of what tracking STABLE really
means. Or maybe it's changed. But I installed from a 12-STABLE medium.
uname(1) reports it's 12-STABLE (12.1-STABLE). But it's _not_ 12-STABLE.
See my confusion? :-)
Thanks again.
