I started a thread before: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=33187
Now, I am still confused. I am sure that mergemaster will not show me too many files should be replaced when I use 8.0, however, with 9.0 mergemaster show me a lot files should be replaces.
What is wrong? Is there some changes in FreeBSD?
Look this:
Why the file that are compiled from source are differents from that are installed with iso image?
Both of them should be same.
For a RELEASE, nothing should be committed but bug fixes.
So, I am confused.
It is normal?
Why there are many files that I have to take care?
I think it is not easy for a general user.
