Greetings.
I would like to switch from Linux to FreeBSD, but am puzzled by the
timeliness of the ports. In particular, I use a drawing program called

Dear Sirs,
Just for curious, today I was looking for the date/entry that belongs to
FreeBSD 8.4-RELEASE inside UPDATING file, with no luck.
Maybe I've made a mistake and I was looking inside a wrong file/url?

Your subject line implies that this started happening after an upgrade.
Perhaps you failed to update a dependency somewhere, or missed a

Allow me to extent the approach: For -STABLE versions (e. g. if

I got stuck in this hell the other day, I had to do this.
