Current task: upgrading some FreeBSD hosts and jails from 14.3-RELEASE to 15.0-RELEASE.

Boring, as expected 🙂

#FreeBSD

@stefano Move slow and breakfast. 😂

@stefano similarly boring, in a pleasant silent Sunday way:

– using pkgbase with FreeBSD 14 to work around a bug involving freebsd-update, which is not yet compatible with base packages.

Using pkgbase to put things right is the natural thing to do, when someone demands abandonment of pkgbase 😺

FreBSD pkgbase MUST be ebandoned

@stefano I was not bored yesterday when I could not forced the pkg to boostrap itself to finish the whole process 😄
@stefano to me gives libutils.so.9 error it was quite difficult to solve it but jail gives some errors yet
@hazzino pkg-static upgrade -f should solve it.
@stefano waiting for 14.4 as I'm one of those people that actually had set up Kerberos on a whim ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Other than that, https://mastodon.online/@rvstaveren/116147976331927577

Noticed that the repositories in #FreeBSD 15 got renamed. What was once called “FreeBSD” is now called “FreeBSD-ports”. Don’t forget any customisations you might have in /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/ or get some puzzling errors from pkg
