pkg does bad things after upgrade from 8.4 to 9.3

I brought this up on irc, did not get a helpful answer. After upgrading a machine from 8.4 to 9.3, I went to upgrade ports/packages. Some need to be built from source as they use non-standard options but most should be installable directly with pkg install. Note that both pkg and pkg-devel

Seeking 6.4 make source for ports

Google is littered with messages from people who have 6.3 systems and can no longer upgrade ports. It appears that a recent change requires the version of make from 6.4. While it would be ideal if freebsd.org would build a 6.4 make on a 6.3 system and pseudo-officially support it, a reasonable

Snaphot stability issues on 6.3

One of our servers, running a bunch of jails, has issues when doing nightly dumps only if snapshots are enabled. This box was running 5.X and has been upgraded over time to 6.3. When running 5.X, we attempted to use snapshots on dump (-L) which resulted in almost nightly system hangs during the

We have a nubmer of similar machines that were initiallly formated with 6.2 before it was released and have subsequently been upgraded to 6.2-RELEASE with no issues. So, we upgraded a 6.1 box which has been running fine as long as the nightly dumps do not use -L to take snapshots. Once it was
