Right, that much is obvious! And I'm still sat here wondering why that is the case and what can be done about it on a global scale, not just for my own unimportant use.
Given the rise of Arm as an architecture, notwithstanding OpenBSD being much less deployed than Linux, crucially there must by this point still be hundreds if not a thousand Arm64 OpenBSD systems out there, whether enclosed in a DMZ or publically addressable, that are security-wise running on fumes (so to speak!) owed to them being stuck with packages that are out-of-date by half a year. So what help would be needed? ________________________________________ From: Crystal Kolipe <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, September 22, 2025 22:53 To: Terry Cocksworth Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: Arm package updates If you want to run -stable, you'll need to compile the corresponding packages for architecures other then i386 and amd64 yourself. An alternative might be to run -current snapshots, where packages are currently being built for more architectures.
