Any suggestions? pkgbase is still a non-production/early status. You have assumed something is (just someimes?) not true. I recently discovered such a bad assumption on my part. (More later.) For: 1500014-d - - 1.81G 2024-02-23 01:15 main-n268493-759a996d610d 1500014-e - - 1.79G 2024-02-23 13:49 main-n268493-759a996d610d FYI: 759a996d610d is the last commit on 2024-Feb-22 (UTC) Thu, 22 Feb 2024 . . git: 759a996d610d - main - LinuxKPI: 802.11: implement a deferred RX path Bjoern A. Zeeb (CommitDate: 2024-02-22 22:46:48 +0000) Are your shown times UTC? Knowing the time zone might help with identifying the relationships involved? And then there is my bad assumption (referencing your material, not my earlier example): FreeBSD-src upgraded: 15.snap20240222221139 -> 15.snap20240223095347 . . FreeBSD-src-sys upgraded: 15.snap20240222234040 -> 15.snap20240223095347 I had originally assumed that that the FreeBSD-src-sys content matches the commit that "uname -apKU" and the like report. This is not the case. In the example that I hand analyzed, the FreeBSD-src-sys expansion had commits from ~10 hours after the commit indicated in the main-n??????-???????????? that uname reported. The likes of "uname -apKU" at least report the commit that kernel is actually based at. (Or am I making another bad assumption?) But identifying the source files that do not apply requires also looking elsewhere so one can later find such text by content in the FreeBSD-src-sys expansion. It is worse for world: I'm not aware of any identified way to systematically find what commit it is based on. From what I've seen it seems to not be based on the commit the kernel reports but is based on some later commit. But the FreeBSD-src expansion need not be an exact match to that vintage and need not match the FreeBSD-src-sys vintage. (Even if FreeBSD-src was accurate by content, converting that content back to a commit hash would be messy.) Knowing what one has or if a fairly recent change is present to test is currently a mess for pkgbase. === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
