I edit time after time for
{$ABI}  which gives FreeBSD:11:i386  but I am on 12-CURRENT i386
Anytime I try to attune to
freebsd:12:x86:32        or
FreeBSD:12:i386           ...
it downloads the packagesite again, as it does in the ABI example, but
a terse
error of wrong architecture, etc, and a fail to do anything to upgrade
to  Pkg-12.

Can the proper file be rename upstream to what its architecture in
simpler terms:
like packagesite-i386-12.txz and a message printed upon de-TXZ the file
so that
the proper nomenclature is given to put into each of those three files
above
so that the generic packagesite.txz will not error out upon download?
Or, put the instructions in /usr/src/UPDATING ?? since it is part of
base?


Or some other way to de-showstopper this v11 April 2016 CURRENT to v12
Feb 2017 CURRENT
upgrade which still has failed to enable seamonkey-2.46_5 to run
non-segfault [ ie cannot run ]
vs seamonkey-2.46_4 which four days ago ran without EVER segfaulting??
And cannot build

and per pkg -vv, still v11...
uname -K
uname -U

Again, maybe a ${ABI} set of three files (FreeBSD.conf (2) , pkg.conf ) that I could use as a template may fix the package issue and if that is fixed, could fix the seamonkey/thunderbird/firefox issues... Precise documentation is lacking in the limited time I have to test solutions in forum and mailing
list posts.
