About to reinstall the 2004-2017 disk, when a forum tar -C of base.txz etc
fixed the pkg v11 > v12 issue, which caused _4 to reinstall from pkg.
Built from ports. _5 on i386 segfaults.
GENERIC was missing axe0 and ums0 in my kernel which I reverted (the kernel)
.....
So aside from a wholesale from-backup of configuration files (the MANIFEST
in /usr/lib/freebsd-dist did not contain the 'motd' etc which it overwrote with
new, unfortunately... two concerns remain.
.....
Building from ports again works, seamonkey _5 segfaults. I restored _4 from pkg. (v12)
pf is nowhere to be found. Even if in the directory where I kldload pf.ko, I receive
a 'no such file' message from kldload.
As it was not my primary firewall, it is not a huge problem, but I would like to
know if something has changed in CURRENT.
....
As another aside, I could maybe 'jail' _4 seamonkey for a number of years so
that it is effecively 'pkg lock seamonkey' without chance for error. But maybe
that is a pipe dream...
....
Apologies to the lists for recent messages needed newbie help which I got elsewhere
but may still have questions unanswered, besides the one above and
the seamonkey i386 _4 _5 breakage I assume to happen someday.
....
Thanks for reading. Very relieved at the moment.
