Update to 15.7.8

[phoenix]

I've just done the update to the new release and there is a requirement to update pkg to a new version by running pkgng, I'm assuming this was intentional as it's not mentioned in the announcement? :) After that pkg update it's necessary to run the update again for a now successfully updated system.

Hi Bill,

It's mentioned in the full notes as a port update, although not how that affects upgrading. We made the GUI firmware upgrade this way a while back because pkg is refusing to show other packages to upgrade until pkg has upgraded. The console firmware upgrade is different as it is a basic "take me to the next level in one big step no matter what happens".


Cheers,
Franco

Hi Franco

Thanks for the quick reply, I guess I'll have to be more studious about OPNsense and reading the full note and getting used to the terminology. You're too quick for me with updates. :) Thanks for all your work on this and it's a much more sane environment on these forum rather than... some other well known firewall forum.

Regards

Bill
