Just bumping this question of mine. I tried a "freebsd-update fetch" just now, but I still have no updates! And my system is still on 6.2-RELEASE-p4. Is that normal or should I be concerned?

$ freebsd-update fetch
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 1 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature from update1.FreeBSD.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.

No updates needed to update system to 6.2-RELEASE-p7.

$ uname -a
FreeBSD obelix.home.rakhesh.com 6.2-RELEASE-p4 FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p4 #0: Thu Apr 26 17:40:53 UTC 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386

I'm on FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p4. If I do a freebsd-update shouldn't I get this? Or will there be a delay coz binary patches have to be prepared for freebsd-update?
