Hello,
I'm trying to create jails and keep them up to date and secure.
I don't know if I should add the src component to my jails.
As of now, I only download base.txz, lib32.txz and doc.txz from http://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/amd64/11.0-RELEASE/ , extract them in a directory and I run
to populate the jail directory.
I'm not sure if I should also add src.txz.
Would some packages from pkg would not work without src? Maybe some libraries available in pkg require some headers that are only available in src?
Also, I'm trying to update my jails and I'm not sure how to specify to freebsd-update that I only want to update the base, lib32 and doc components (and maybe src).
Thanks for your help.
