Description Derek Schrock 2015-10-24 01:37:09 UTC 
After updating an i386 FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE system to 9.3-RELEASE-p28 any attempts to run 'freebsd-update fetch' there after results in a message wanting to remove nothing:

---------
# freebsd-update fetch
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 5 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature for 9.3-RELEASE from update5.freebsd.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Inspecting system... done.
Preparing to download files... done.

The following files will be removed as part of updating to 9.3-RELEASE-p28:

# freebsd-update install
Installing updates... done.
# freebsd-update fetch
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 5 mirrors found.
...

The following files will be removed as part of updating to 9.3-RELEASE-p28:

Looking at one of the meta files (INDEX-OLD) used by freebsd-update it appear there's a lib32 line that shouldn't there?

---------
# cd /var/db/freebsd-update

# cat tINDEX.present

Removing this line causes freebsd-update to not report this "remove nothing" update:

---------
# zgrep lib32 files/9d024d76b279a1804dafdcf33d2e1a5a8bfde1d98cda812a73d173089d071080.gz
#

# freebsd-update fetch
...
No updates needed to update system to 9.3-RELEASE-p28.

Based off a cursory search of how freebsd-update-server works (I'm assuming update,update{2..6}.freebsd.org are using this) are these machines configured with "lib32" as a component in WORLDPARTS?

All freebsd-update servers (update,update{2..6}.freebsd.org) 9d024d76b279a1804dafdcf33d2e1a5a8bfde1d98cda812a73d173089d071080.gz files all have this lib32 line.
