+ 1. Please make sure that the PostgreSQL server for the NetBox instance is
+ running version 14 or higher. This is because Django 5.2 requires
+ PostgreSQL 14 as a minimum.
+
+ 2. Please also check the pkg-message and the changelogs for further info.

+
+ Starting from version 0.10 the command swww init, previously deprecated, has
+ been properly deleted. The correct way of initializing the daemon is calling
+ swww-daemon directly.

+ RFC 6455, other ports and the description from Mk/bsd.options.desc.mk.

+ AFFECTS: users of net-mgmt/unifi9
+ AUTHOR: ronald@FreeBSD.org
+
+ The MongoDB dependency updates from 6.0 to 7.0.
+ Please read 20250520 about the upgrade instructions of
+ databases/mongodb60. Mind that the mongodb portnr for Unifi is 27117.
+ The 20240606 instructions for net-mgmt/unifi8 can also be
+ informative.
+
+ Always backup/snapshot before upgrading.
+ Turn off Unifi and MongoDB during the upgrade. (service unifi stop)
+
+ MongoDB 7.0 does not formally support ARM systems without Large System
+ Extensions (LSE) support.
+ Please use the unifi9-armv80a package when running on RPI4 or similar
+ systems.
+ Running the non-armv80a package will result in an "illegal instruction"
+ on these systems.

+ AUTHOR: ronald@FreeBSD.org
+
+ MongoDB version 6.0 is End of Life starting August 2025.
+ Please make sure you are running MongoDB version 7.0 or higher.
+ In-place upgrades are supported from version 6.0 to 7.0.
+ For an in-place upgrade it is important that the
+ 'featureCompatibilityVersion' is set to 6.0 before the upgrade.
+ See: https://www.mongodb.com/docs/v7.0/release-notes/7.0-upgrade-standalone/#feature-compatibility-version
+
+ TL;DR, run these commands in mongodb60 before upgrading:
+ (see `pkg info -D mongodb60` how to install mongosh)
+ $ npx mongosh mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/ # or use non-default port
+ > db.adminCommand( { setFeatureCompatibilityVersion: "6.0" } )
+ > exit

+ AFFECTS: users of sysutils/screen
+ AUTHOR: cy@FreeBSD.org
+
+ sysutils/screen has been updated to 5.0.1 from 4.9.1. All currently
+ running screen sessions must be terminated before upgrading. Failure
+ to do so will result in orphaning remaining screen sessions. This is
+ expected when updating from one major version of screen to to another.
+
+20250514:
+ AFFECTS: users of lang/perl5.*
+ AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org
+
+ The default Perl version has been switched to 5.40.

+ AFFECTS: users of www/tt-rss
+ AUTHOR: dereks@lifeofadishwasher.com
+
+ tt-rss has dropped support for mysql/mariadb starting with commit
+ 4cb8a84df46d46b. The next update (mid-June) to www/tt-rss will include this
+ update.
+
+ https://community.tt-rss.org/t/support-for-mysql-is-no-more/6897
+
+ You should migrate your data to databases/postgresqlXY-server.

+ AUTHOR: kbowling@FreeBSD.org
+
+ 29.x is the last release series that will support the legacy BDB wallet
+ format. We are already doing this awkwardly since the format is BDB 4.8
+ and we are building with BDB 5. This will be removed in 30.0 later this
+ year.
+
+ You should upgrade your wallet now if you are still using a legacy wallet.
+
+ Instructions:
+ https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/29.x/doc/managing-wallets.md#migrating-legacy-wallets-to-descriptor-wallets
+
+ This release switches to CMake which results in a major refactoring of
+ the port and underlying build. The result seems good, but please
+ provide feedback if there are any unexpected changes or problems.
+
+ This release dropped UPnP support due to security concerns. NAT-PMP is
+ implemented as an alternative.
