Re: How to upgrade?

Hello!

For home user, in my opinion the easist way to perform upgrade softwares is:


- Get latest vulnerability list: 'download-vulnerability-list'

- Download pkgsrc-2008Q2 from ftp.netbsd.org and extract the archive.

- Install pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkg_rolling-replace

- Type 'pkg_rolling-replace -u -v'


Note1: You may wish to insert 'ALLOW_VULNERABLE_PACKAGES=yes' into 
/etc/mk.conf as Havard explained before.
Note2: You may wish to check 'man pkg_rolling-replace' manual page to 
see what -u -v performs.
