Hello,
I have two machines, running FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE, with almost identical setup. I set them up with 8.1 or 8.2 initially. Possibly one with 8.1 and one with 8.2, I can't remember anymore. For simplicity, I call them machine one and machine two. On machine two, I encountered various unexpected things. The gcc version is 4.2.1, where it should be 4.2.2. posix_fallocate(), which was added in 8.3, is not available. Manpages are outdated and so on.
On machine two
I am sure, that I updated and upgraded these machines only with freebsd-update(8). freebsd-update.conf(5) is untouched on both machines, expect the mail address. It does contain
on both machines. Obviously the base system on machine two has not been updated correctly. Any ideas how this could have happened? What's best to do? I'm running these machines for approximately two years now. I don't know for how long machine two has these issues.
Thanks in advance.
