State Changed From-To: open->analyzed Pretty much spoton. Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-doc->ceri Add to my pending queue. My most recent changes to the FAQ (coordinated with hrs@ before I knew of the existance of this PR) have rendered the second section of the patch obsolete. As for the fourth section of the patch, rather than introducing cvsup there, I would prefer to see a link to the Porter's Handbook section on "keeping up" which has several alternative ways to do it. (In fact, there is a new one that needs to be documented there). This would establish a single place for that documentation. That's at http://lonesome/FreeBSD_doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/keeping-up.html mcl State Changed From-To: analyzed->closed Committed with minor changes from both myself and linimon; thanks again. |
A handful of updates to the User Applications section of the FAQ. Update for .tbz packages, update for location of packages on ftp sites, URL changes, and correct procedure for updating the ports collection ("ports upgrade kits" haven't existed for a long time...) Fix: (patch also at http://www.devrandom.co.uk/freebsd/faq7.diff) How-To-Repeat: N/A
