Hi there, reading the upgrade-guide 5.5 to 5.6
on http://www.openbsd.org/faq/upgrade56.html I came across an issue
with
sysmerge options: The guide advises to run sysmerge like so:sysmerge
-s
${RELEASEPATH}/etc56.tgz -x ${RELEASEPATH}/xetc56.tgz I have the
*tgz-files in the folder ~/Downloads/amd64/. I have cd'ed there and
runsysmerge
-s etc56.tgz -x xetc56.tgz What I get is the following
comment:/usr/sbin/sysmerge[612]:

Cheers,STEFAN
Looks like you are running a current sysmerge. Likely you did not
upgrade to 5.6-release, but 5.6-current, using a snapshot.

Hi Otto,
thanks for the quick reply.
Yes - your assumption is correct, I run 5.6-current. Nevertheless: What
would the correct usage of sysmerge be as the online-version of 'man(8)
sysmerge' does not know about the options '-s' and '-x'?
Best,
STEFAN
