FreeBSD-update fails finding upgrade

2009-07-29 Thread Predrag Aleksic
freebsd-update fetch
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 3 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature for 7.2-RELEASE from update5.FreeBSD.org...
done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Inspecting system... done.
Preparing to download files... done.

No updates needed to update system to 7.2-RELEASE-p2.


Is that normal? I mean, there obviously seems to be a 7.2-RELEASE-p3 but
then why isn't my system getting updated to that?

The patch version is only bumped when there is a change in the kernel.

 Also see also 
 http://security.freebsd.org/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-09:12.bind.asc. And either 
 be patient or use one of the other methods mentioned to update:
 
 NOTE: Due to this issue being accidentally disclosed early, updated
 binaries are yet not available via freebsd-update at the time this
 advisory is being published.  Email will be sent to the freebsd-security
 mailing list when the binaries are available via freebsd-update.
