Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-bugs->cperciva Over to maintainer batch change: For bugs that match the following - Status Is In progress AND - Untouched since 2018-01-01. AND - Affects Base System OR Documentation DO: Reset to open status. Note: I did a quick pass but if you are getting this email it might be worthwhile to double check to see if this bug ought to be closed. This shouldn't be a problem anymore since if the release is specified as "6.3" it will automatically expand it to "6.3-RELEASE". Drop freebsd-update PRs which were assigned to me. I'm not working on this code any more. Believed fixed per comment #3, please submit a new PR if any issues remain. |
While running the FreeBSD update tool to upgrade to 6.3, I got this warning: Fetching metadata signature for 6.3 from update1.FreeBSD.org... failed. No mirrors remaining, giving up. That was my fault, I had specified "6.3" instead of "6.3-RELEASE". But still, the tool could me in a more friendly way that the directory 6.3 didn't exist and that I should look with a webbrowser at http://update1.freebsd.org/ to see which upgrade releases are available.
