>From the OpenBSD FAQ Chapter 5.1 (Flavors), in the section labelled "Keeping Things in Sync": ---- It is important to understand that OpenBSD is an Operating System, intended to be taken as a whole, not a kernel with a bunch of utilities stuck on. You must make sure your kernel, "userland" (the supporting utilities and files) and ports tree are all in sync, or unpleasant things will happen. Said another way (because people just keep making the error), you can not run brand new ports on a month old system, or rebuild a kernel from -current source and expect it to work with a -release userland. Yes, this does mean you need to update your system if you want to run a new program which was added to the ports tree today. Sorry, but again, OpenBSD has limited resources available.
