Re: Approved way to update installed ports after system upgrade?
You're not the only one being slapped with this problem, and the solution is in the man page, but maybe the FAQ for 'using snapshots' should mention this: if `pkg -u` don't work, try `pkg -u -Dsnap` I've been using snapshots ever since puffy offered binary pkgs, and I've never seen this problem before. I'm wildly guessing it'll go away once the snapshots crank further past 6.8-release -- Am 10/20/20 um 7:32 PM schrieb Andrew Robertson: What's the standard way to upgrade installed ports after a system upgrade? I've been trying to figure out how to do this properly, and it doesn't seem to have any mention in the FAQ. Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance. > "Finish up by upgrading the packages using pkg_add -u." from https://www.openbsd.org/faq/upgrade68.html For the very few ports that have a restricted license which mean we can't distribute packages, update the repository with cvs [1] and then run `make update` [1]: https://www.openbsd.org/anoncvs.html Cheers, Daniel
