I found the "mergemaster -p" in an older doc version:

http://www.far-far-away.com/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html 
<http://www.far-far-away.com/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html>


mergemaster -p :

This does some initial configuration file updates in preparation for the new 
world. For instance it may add new user groups to the system, or new user names 
to the password database. This is often necessary when new groups or special 
system-user accounts have been added since the last update, so that the 
installworld step will be able to use the newly installed system user or system 
group names without problems.

But the latest doc version has no reference about "mergemaster -p".

So "mergemaster/etcupdate -p" is not needed if we use 12.2?
