freebsd-update is another matter though. Base system security
updates are distributed via that channel(binary updates) so it's a
good idea to run that regularly.
I just noticed the description in the man page for freebsd-update:
..."Note that updates are only available if they are being built for
the FreeBSD release and architecture being used; in particular, the
FreeBSD Security Team only builds updates for releases shipped in
binary form by the FreeBSD Release Engineering Team, e.g., FreeBSD 6.1-
RELEASE and FreeBSD 6.2-RC1, but not FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE or FreeBSD 7.0-
CURRENT."
Is this saying that I can't get a binary upgrade for 6.4-STABLE?
(You would not believe how long the make world process takes on a
Pentium 200!!)
