I just re-verified the behavior, so -- even though I have already started taking evasive action (updating python), I figured it may be of use to show what I'm seeing; maybe I'm confused:
Local ports tree is updated; previous ports update was a week ago. I happen to know that there's an UPDATING entry: lgld-dhw(12.2-S)[4] tail +16 /usr/ports/UPDATING | head -5 20210425: AFFECTS: users of python AUTHOR: k...@freebsd.org The default version of python3 and python was switched to 3.8. And that this machine should be affected: lgld-dhw(12.2-S)[5] pkg info -o python\* python27-2.7.18_1 lang/python27 python36-3.6.13 lang/python36 python38-3.8.9 lang/python38 [As noted above, I had already started evasive action.] But "pkg updating" is not actually showing the above entry: lgld-dhw(12.2-S)[6] pkg updating -d 20210424 lgld-dhw(12.2-S)[7] echo $? 0 Am I alone in expecting "pkg updating" to have displayed the 20210425 entry? (There was an issue a while back, where "pkg updating" was not showing "glob" entries, but that has since been addressed.) This is on a machine running stable/12: lgld-dhw(12.2-S)[8] uname -a FreeBSD lgld-dhw.corp.example.com 12.2-STABLE FreeBSD 12.2-STABLE #21 stable/12-n233048-23a3c3d97d72: Sun May 2 04:43:57 PDT 2021 r...@lgld-dhw.corp.example.com:/common/S2/obj/common/S2/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC amd64 lgld-dhw(12.2-S)[9] pkg -v 1.16.3 Thanks.
