    How are the FreeBSD OS versions named?

    According to Wikipedia 14.0 was released on 20 November 2023 and 13.3 was released on 5 March 2024. How is it possible for 13.3 to release after 14.0? This is very confusing.

    Solved How to detect END-OF-LIFE on an OS release via script?

    I would like to implement a detection within a script that gives me an answer if the release is at END OF LIFE or still current. In a nutshell, I call freebsd-update from my script and I need to differentiate between a legitimate error and the error code 1 returned by freebsd-update when the...

    Please add better version management in the pkg install.

    There has to be a minimal_tested_target_level or something to have sepperate versions of the package uploaded for different freebsd releases, keeping it compatible. I prefer FreeBSD 11.4 over newer because of SCO unix SVR compatibility, but a lot of BSD packages, I can't install. This is a main...

    What is the difference between 10 and 11?

    (I tried to search for "difference between 10 and 11" and the search excluded "10" "and" "11" for being too common, too short, etc - so the "search" results were totally irrelevant.) I have a server running FreeBSD 10.3, I'm going to upgrade to either 10.4 or 11.1. I've looked at the release...

    I have a few FreeBSD 10.1 Release droplets in the Digital Ocean Cloud. None of them have /usr/src installed by default and it's unnecessary anyway because I'm using freebsd-update. This morning freebsd-update fetch found a whole bunch of files in /usr/src/contrib to update. The files were...
