 The archive side of the point release has now finished.  The next
 scheduled archive update begins in a couple of hours time, after which
 updated packages will start appearing on mirrors.

Unfortunately, during the generation of the CD images, a problem was
discovered which meant that the kfreebsd-{amd64,i386} Packages file
contained the wrong information for a particular package.

That issue has been corrected, and the point release is being
re-published this morning as 6.0.2.1.  There are no changes in package
content; the only difference from the original 6.0.2 (aside from
versioning in Release files, etc.) is the fix to the Packages files.

Regards,

Adam

Then, shouldn't that be 6.0.2a just like which occurred previously to 
result in 6.0.1a to replace 6.0.1

The a suffix has previously been used to indicate CD-only rebuilds -
i.e. where no changes were made on the archive side (with one exception
during etch's stable lifetime).  As this involved a change to the
archive (albeit a minor one) we decided to use a version which
distinguished it from a CD-only change.

Regards,

Adam
