Hi,

I am not sure the component is right or not. If not, please kindly help me move to other category or component.

For the latest FreeBSD 13.2 RC2 32bit image, we found some packages are missing in the ISO image.  By checking FreeBSD 13.2 RC1 and RC2 64bit and 32bit image, we found lots of packages don’t exist in RC2 32bit image.
 
There are 941 packages in FreeBSD 13.2 RC2 64bit image but only 261 packages in 32bit image.
$ ls -1 /mnt/freebsd-13.2-rc2-64bit/packages/FreeBSD\:13\:amd64/All/ | wc -l
941
 
$ ls -1 /mnt/freebsd-13.2-rc2-32bit/packages/FreeBSD\:13\:i386/All/ | wc -l
261
 
In RC1 release, 64bit image has 941 packages and 32bit image has 940 packages.
$ ls -1 /mnt/freebsd-13.2-rc1-64bit/packages/FreeBSD\:13\:amd64/All/  | wc -l
941
 
$ ls -1 /mnt/freebsd-13.2-rc1-32bit/packages/FreeBSD\:13\:i386/All/ | wc -l
940
 
svt-av1-1.4.1.pkg is missing in 32bit image.

FreeBSD 13.2 RC2 i386 iso image size is also much smaller than in RC1 i386.
% ls -lh RC1/*.iso
-rw-rwxrw-  1 root  wheel   3.9G Mar  3 12:57 RC1/FreeBSD-13.2-RC1-amd64-dvd1.iso
-rw-rwxrw-  1 root  wheel   3.2G Mar  3 12:56 RC1/FreeBSD-13.2-RC1-i386-dvd1.iso

% ls -lh RC2/*.iso
-rw-rwxrw-  1 root  wheel   3.9G Mar 10 13:23 RC2/FreeBSD-13.2-RC2-amd64-dvd1.iso
-rw-rwxrw-  1 root  wheel   2.1G Mar 10 13:07 RC2/FreeBSD-13.2-RC2-i386-dvd1.iso
 
We want to make sure that FreeBSD are going to reduce so many packages in 32bit image in future or not?

Thanks in advance!
Yanhui
