Local ports tree is updated; previous ports update was a week ago. I
happen to know that there's an UPDATING entry:
lgld-dhw(12.2-S)[4] tail +16 /usr/ports/UPDATING | head -5
20210425:
AFFECTS: users of python
AUTHOR: k...@freebsd.org
The default version of python3 and python was switched to 3.8.
And that this machine should be affected:
lgld-dhw(12.2-S)[5] pkg info -o python\*
python27-2.7.18_1 lang/python27
python36-3.6.13 lang/python36
python38-3.8.9 lang/python38
[As noted above, I had already started evasive action.]
But "pkg updating" is not actually showing the above entry:
lgld-dhw(12.2-S)[6] pkg updating -d 20210424
lgld-dhw(12.2-S)[7] echo $?
0
Am I alone in expecting "pkg updating" to have displayed the 20210425
entry?
(There was an issue a while back, where "pkg updating" was not showing
"glob" entries, but that has since been addressed.)
This is on a machine running stable/12:
lgld-dhw(12.2-S)[8] uname -a
FreeBSD lgld-dhw.corp.example.com 12.2-STABLE FreeBSD 12.2-STABLE #21
stable/12-n233048-23a3c3d97d72: Sun May 2 04:43:57 PDT 2021
r...@lgld-dhw.corp.example.com:/common/S2/obj/common/S2/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC
amd64
lgld-dhw(12.2-S)[9] pkg -v
1.16.3
Thanks.
Peace,
david
The UPDATING file says "users of python" while the pkg/port name is python37.
So that does not match. It does match for humans but not for computers. :-)
The UPDATING entry should have said something like "users of lang/python*" to
work.
Regards,
Ronald.
