I want to upgrade from 4.0 to 4.2 and I see I am supposed to perform 4.0->4.1 first. But some things are unclear to me in http://openbsd.org/faq/upgrade41.html:
"Pay special attention to mail/* if you are using something other than the default Sendmail(8) configuration." - I use Exim so I should do this. What specifically is meant with "pay special attention"? "Files that must be manually merged, respecting any local changes made to them, if they were modified from the default, otherwise, just copy them over, too:" How do I figure out what local changes I did? Is there something like the cvs diff command? I have the system over a year and if I needed to change something in the config files then I just changed it and forgot it. "If you installed any packages on your system, you should upgrade them after completing the upgrade of the base system." - I installed a lot of packages on my system and have no idea what is their complete list. How do I figure that out and how do I discern between packages that were already pre-installed by default and the ones I installed explicitly? Then, how do I upgrade a package XXX? "Check with the application's upgrade guide for details." - is the application upgrade guide something the application author publishes or something that the OpenBSD project publishes? Where is it? Thanks for clarifications, CL<
