Cannot update system from 11-RELEASE-p2 to 11-RELEASE-p6

2017-01-07 Thread Fernando Herrero Carrón
Hi,

I am seeing a strange behaviour. I run freebsd-update fetch:

% sudo freebsd-update fetch
Password:
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 4 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature for 11.0-RELEASE from update6.freebsd.org...
done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Inspecting system... done.
Preparing to download files... done.

No updates needed to update system to 11.0-RELEASE-p6.

But:

% uname -a
FreeBSD pantera 11.0-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p2 #0: Mon Oct 24
06:55:27 UTC 2016

Does this make sense?

Just to ask the obvious: have you rebooted your system?

uname -a gives the version of the running OS.

freebsd-version -ku gives installed versions for kernel and userland.

Best regards,
Holger

Use 'freebsd-version' to see the userland patch level; 'uname' gives you 
the kernel patch level; the kernel doesn't receive patches at the same rate 
as userland does.
