As another step on brushing up my #Yocto knowledge, I wrote a guide on how to setup the #SWUpdate layer for local updates on a Raspberry Pi.

Firmware images are getting bigger 🚛 . When applying updates, we only want to update the parts that changed. This was tricky to implement, but with the patterns provided by the #CIP and #swupdate this has become easy. Want to know more? https://lnkd.in/d8mJbctc

I generally run #OpenBSD -stable on my workstation to try to dogfood what non-developers are likely running when developing/testing #MLVWM (#X11 Macintosh-like Virtual Window Manager) and my other utilities like #swupdate (https://github.com/morgant/swupdate-openbsd). One of this month's tasks is to dust off my WIP fixes to the #Keyspan #TrippLite #USA19HS USB serial driver, plus the 7.5 release is right around the corner, so I have updated my 2015 MacBook Air workstation to -current.

My primary workstation has now been upgraded to #OpenBSD amd64/7.4-release using my #swupdate utility! The current v0.7.1 correctly identifies the new release being available, lists the appropriate change/upgrade/errata URLs to review, and prompts to run sysupgrade(8).

My apologies to my followers for the onslaught of #OpenBD #74HYPE just now. I knew today was going to be release day, but didn't consider that I was gong to be on-site with clients all day and not checking any personal comms. Looking forward to reviewing the release notes and testing my #swupdate utility with this upgrade.

@steven #swupdate really was born out of me not wanting to forget any -- albeit very minimal -- minutia of the #OpenBSD base/firmware/packages updates processes, nor miss/forget one of @brynet's reminders regarding snapshots during certain portions of development/beta/release cycles. Also, just streamlining the process ever-so-slightly for updating all my various OpenBSD machines and VMs.

@steven Well, in the case of #swupdate, the handling of the post-beta/pre-release window is really only to ensure it's executing `pkg_add` with the `-Dsnap` option so it's not trying to install non-existent -release/-stable packages. This is something those running -current have to remember to do during these short periods of time.

It's still tricky going from -current to -release because -current will diverge on commits as soon as the release is tagged. :(

#OpenBSD is currently in the small post-beta/pre-release period, which my #swupdate utility has specific support for. That said, it appears this support was only included in the `swupdate -d` (download) and `swupdate -i` (install) options in the 0.7.1 release, not the `swupdate -l` (list) option.

So, I'll add an issue for that and fix in the next release.
