Keeping FreeBSD uptodate with svn, freebsd-update complaining

Fri Apr 12 08:28:44 UTC 2013

[I wasn't sure what the most appropriate list for this issue is...]

Hello!

Recently (after the latest OpenSSL security issue) I have updated my
FreeBSD install from source. i.e., I have updated my source tree
(under /usr/src) with svn and did the
buildworld/buildkernel/installkernel/mergemaster/installworld/mergemaster
procedure. For completeness: My source tree contains this code
revision:

   URL: https://svn0.us-west.freebsd.org/base/releng/9.1
   Repository Root: https://svn0.us-west.freebsd.org/base
   Repository UUID: ccf9f872-aa2e-dd11-9fc8-001c23d0bc1f
   Revision: 249029

This was my first time, but I was following the handbook closely and
everything seems to have worked just fine.

# uname -a
FreeBSD XXX 9.1-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE-p2 #5 r249029: Wed Apr  3 12:29:28 CEST 2013     root at XXX:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/FUGLOS  amd64

But what I don't understand is the following. Whenever I execute
'freebsd-update fetch' (I had added a 'freebsd-update cron' to my
crontab), the output below(!) is generated.

It's not clear to me what this actually means:

* Why does freebsd-update want to update my system to 9.1-RELEASE-p2,
   although I _am_ running that version already?

* Why does it want to update that specific list of files? This is just
   a subset of of the the binary files which should have been installed
   from installworld. What is special about this subset?

* What is the proper way to 'resolve' this situation?

I would be happy about some insights/pointers/help here!
Thank you very much,
melanie
