This file documents some of the problems you may encounter when upgrading
your ports. We try our best to minimize these disruptions, but sometimes
they are unavoidable.
You should get into the habit of checking this file for changes each time
you update your ports collection, before attempting any port upgrades.
20240620:
AFFECTS: net-mgmt/net-snmp
AUTHOR: markj@FreeBSD.org
The snmpd and snmptrapd daemons now drop privileges by default when started
using the rc scripts provided in the package. Make sure that snmpd
configuration in /usr/local/share/snmp is readable by the "snmpd" user. If
you have defined extension scripts in snmpd.conf, make sure that they can be
executed by an unprivileged user. To revert to the old behavior of always
running as root, set snmpd_sugid="NO" or snmptrapd_sugid="NO" in /etc/rc.conf.
See the snmpd rc script for a hint on how to debug any permission problems
that might arise as a result of this change.
20240615:
AFFECTS: mail/cyrus-imapd25
AUTHOR: ume@FreeBSD.org
The BDB option is disabled by default.
If you are using the berkeley cyrusdb backend, we strongly recommend
that you switch to something other than the berkeley cyrusdb
backend. If you want to continue using the berkeley cyrusdb
backend, build the cyrus-imapd25 port yourself with the BDB option
enabled.
20240613:
AFFECTS: multimedia/audacios and multimedia/audacious-plugins
AUTHOR: madpilot@FreeBSD.org
Upstream project made qt6 the new default, so the port flavors have
been updated to follow this change.
If you are using the qt6 flavor, you should uninstall it and install
the unflavored package. If you want to keep using the qt5 version it
will be updated automatically to the qt6 version. If you should
uninstall the unflavored package and instal the qt5 version.
20240606:
AFFECTS: users of net-mgmt/unifi8
AUTHOR: ronald@FreeBSD.org
The default MongoDB version dependency has been switched from 5.0 to 6.0.
Although MongoDB 5.0 -> MongoDB 6.0 datafiles in-place upgrade seem to
work, users are strongly recommended to take full backup of unifi
database prior to upgrade and start with clean installation afterwards.
For an in-place upgrade it is important that the MongoDB
'featureCompatibilityVersion' is set to 5.0.
See: https://www.mongodb.com/docs/v6.0/release-notes/6.0-upgrade-standalone/#feature-compatibility-version
See updating entry 20230310 for a backup/restore upgrade.
20240604:
AFFECTS: net-mgmt/net-snmp
AUTHOR: markj@FreeBSD.org
The net-snmp port's newsyslog(8) configuration has been updated such
that the snmpd log file will be owned by the snmpd user following log
rotation. This is done to make it easier to run snmpd as the snmpd
user rather than as root, using the snmpd_sugid rc.conf option.
For now snmpd still runs as root by default. This is expected to change
in the future.
20240529:
AFFECTS: users of TeX*
AUTHOR: bofh@FreeBSD.org
TeX system has been updated to 2024 from 2023. Normal pkg upgrade or
portmaster -a should handle all the upgrade properly. In case not please
create a ticket or send a mail to tex@FreeBSD.org
Previously users have reported to delete texlive-texmf prior to
starting update, or pkg-static will indicate there is a conflict
during the upgrade of texlive-base :
# pkg remove texlive-texmf
20240529:
AFFECTS: users of python
AUTHOR: rm@FreeBSD.org
The default version of python3 and python was switched to 3.11.
For ports users wanting to keep version 3.9 as default,
add DEFAULT_VERSIONS+= python=3.9 python3=3.9 to make.conf
Following procedures may ease the upgrade:
For users of pre-build packages:
# sh
# for i in $(pkg query -g %n 'py39-*'); do pkg set -yn ${i}:py311-${i#py39-}; done
# pkg upgrade
For portmaster users:
# sh
# portmaster -o lang/python311 python39
# REINSTALL="$(pkg info -oq '*py39*')"
# pkg delete -f "*py39*"
# portmaster $REINSTALL
# REBUILD=$(pkg query -g "%n:%dn" '*' | grep py3 | grep -v py311 | cut -d : -f 1 | sort -u)
# portmaster $REBUILD
# REBUILD2=$(pkg list | grep python-39 | xargs pkg which | awk '{print $6}' | sort -u)
# portmaster $REBUILD2
Final steps (for pre-built packages & portmaster):
If no longer required, Python 3.9 can be removed via
"pkg remove python39" and the directory /usr/local/lib/python3.9 can
then be deleted afterwards, if not empty.
20240522:
AFFECTS: net-p2p/transmission-daemon
The web interface has been separated from the daemon port into its own port.
This allows users of transmission-gtk and transmission-qt to install the web
interface.
20240521:
AFFECTS: www/gitlab
AUTHOR: mfechner@FreeBSD.org
Make sure you upgrade first to 16.11.x before you upgrade to the today
released version 17.0.0.
For more details see:
https://gitlab.fechner.net/mfechner/Gitlab-docu/-/blob/master/update/16.11-17.0-freebsd.md
20240517:
AFFECTS: comms/tio
AUTHOR: diizzy@FreeBSD.org
As of 3.1 upstream have reworked configuration file layout and syntax
so older configurations will not work.
For more details, see
https://github.com/tio/tio/releases/tag/v3.1
20240513:
AFFECTS: users of security/libressl
AUTHOR: brnrd@FreeBSD.org
The port has been updated to the latest stable version 3.9 of LibreSSL.
The shared library versions of the libraries have been bumped.
After upgrading, manually update all packages that depend on any of the
libraries provided by LibreSSL (libssl, libcrypto and libtls) since the
versions of these libraries have changed. Normally, you can obtain the
list of dependent software by running the following command:
# pkg info -r libressl
Then you should rebuild all ports depending on libressl to avoid dangling
shared library dependencies.
20240509:
AFFECTS: databases/timescaledb
AUTHOR: kbowling@FreeBSD.org
The Foreign Key storage in hypertables has changed in an incompatible way,
after runing ALTER EXTENSION, you must run the SQL script here:
https://github.com/timescale/timescaledb-extras/blob/master/utils/2.15.X-fix_hypertable_foreign_keys.sql
For more details, see
https://github.com/timescale/timescaledb/pull/6797
20240508:
AFFECTS: www/oauth2-proxy
AUTHOR: netchild@FreeBSD.org
The start script is converted to be instance aware. To use it:
- cp /usr/local/etc/oauth2-proxy.cfg.sample /usr/local/etc/oauth2-proxy-myapp.cfg
- vi /usr/local/etc/oauth2-proxy-myapp.cfg
- ln -s oauth2_proxy /usr/local/etc/rc.d/oauth2_proxy_myapp
- sysctl oauth2_proxy_myapp_enable=YES
- service oauth2_proxy_myapp start
This allows to easily start multiple instances on the same system.
As part of this, the start script was renamed to oauth2_proxy. This only
affects manual restarts, no change in rc.conf is needed.
20240430:
AFFECTS: audio/py-pyradio
AUTHOR: nivit@FreeBSD.org
The new version of Pyradio moves some data files to new locations.

The shared library versions of the libraries have been bumped.
After upgrading, manually update all packages that depend on any of the
libraries provided by LibreSSL (libssl, libcrypto and libtls) since the
versions of these libraries have changed. Normally, you can obtain the
list of dependent software by running the following command:
# pkg info -r libressl
Then you should rebuild all ports depending on libressl to avoid dangling
shared library dependencies.

with earlier nfdump versions may not contain all flow elements.
If you have older files, it is recommended to use nfdump-1.6.17
to update the records.
nfdump 1.7.x provides the same set of programs as 1.6.x and can
be used almost as a drop-in replacement. This may change in future
and older legacy programs may be removed. You can convert any old
files from nfdump-1.6 to nfdump-1.7 format by reading/writing

20231017:
AFFECTS: users of lang/perl5*
AUTHOR: delphij@FreeBSD.org
The default Perl version has been switched to Perl 5.36. If you are using
binary packages to upgrade your system, you do not have anything to do, pkg
upgrade will do the right thing. For the other people, assuming you are
migrating from 5.34 to 5.36, do:
First, add to /etc/make.conf:
DEFAULT_VERSIONS+= perl5=5.36
Portupgrade users:
portupgrade -o lang/perl5.36 -f lang/perl5.34
You can now remove the DEFAULT_VERSIONS line added earlier
from /etc/make.conf
Then you will need to rebuild everything that uses libperl.so, you
can do so with:
portupgrade -f `pkg shlib -qR libperl.so.5.34`
If, for some reason, this command fails at one point, it is safe to
run it again, it will not rebuild what it already rebuilt, as the
ports that have been rebuilt no longer depend on libperl.so.5.34 but
on libperl.so.5.36.
Portmaster users:
portmaster -o lang/perl5.36 lang/perl5.34
You can now remove the DEFAULT_VERSIONS line added earlier
from /etc/make.conf
Then you will need to rebuild everything that uses libperl.so, you
can do so with:
portmaster -f `pkg shlib -qR libperl.so.5.34`
If, for some reason, this command fails at one point, it is safe to

AUTHOR: brnrd@FreeBSD.org
The openssl port was renamed to openssl111 and subsequently the
openssl30 port was renamed to openssl.
The shared library version of OpenSSL has been bumped.
Users of DEFAULT_VERSIONS= ssl=openssl30 must update this to
ssl=openssl.
Users of DEFAULT_VERSIONS= ssl=openssl should not change this unless
they use ports that require the deprecated OpenSSL 1.1.1 version.
You must rebuild all ports that depend on OpenSSL if you use OpenSSL
from ports.
20231011:
AFFECTS: users of www/caddy
AUTHOR: adamw@FreeBSD.org
The default admin endpoint has changed from localhost:2019 to
/var/run/caddy/caddy.sock. Using a Unix socket is more secure,
allowing it to be secured by filesystem permissions rather than
requiring a firewall.
If you only control caddy from the rc(8) script (service caddy ...),
you don't need to do anything. If you access the API yourself, you
will want to update your scripts to use the new socket.
To use the old endpoint, add the following to /etc/rc.conf:

AUTHOR: madpilot@FreeBSD.org
XFCE 4.18 is incompatible with the latest version of the adwaita
icon theme (version 42.0 and newer), which was used as the default one.
Due to this the default icon theme has been changed to
x11-themes/xfce-icons-elementary.
Users that have XFCE already installed and are using the adwaita
icon theme will notice missing icons. To fix this you can install
any other icon theme (like x11-themes/xfce-icons-elementary) and
configure XFCE to use that via the "appearance" settings application,
under the "icons" tab.

AFFECTS: users of net-p2p/transmission
AUTHOR: mondo.debater_0q@icloud.com
The 4.0 port haphazardly consolidated prior slave ports into flavors of a single port.
The flavors have now been revised to better match releases prior to 4.0.
The -full flavor included in the 4.0 port has been replaced with -default, which
restores the compile-time options of prior release's metaport. Other flavors allow
for more piecemeal installs. The prior -web slave port can be installed through the
-default flavor or the -daemon flavor.

20230908:
AFFECTS: users of databases/postgresql* and other software using PostgreSQL to run
AUTHOR: kbowling@FreeBSD.org
The default version of PostgreSQL has been switched from 13 to 15.
The upgrade procedure can use up twice the space the databases
currently needs. If you have a big amount of stored data take a
closer look at the manpage of pg_upgrade for avoidance and/or
speedup of the upgrade.
The upgrade instructions consider a basic usage and do not match
complex scenarios like replication, sharding, or similar.
Upgrade instructions:
First stop your PostgreSQL, create PostgreSQL-binaries and backup your data.
If you have another Version of PostgreSQL installed, for example 13, your
files are named according to this.
# service postgresql stop
# pkg create postgresql13-server postgresql13-contrib
# mkdir /tmp/pg-upgrade
# tar xf postgresql13-server-13.12.pkg -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
# tar xf postgresql13-contrib-13.12.pkg -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
# pkg delete -f databases/postgresql13-server databases/postgresql13-contrib databases/postgresql13-client
Now update PostgreSQL:
pkg user:
# pkg install databases/postgresql15-server databases/postgresql15-contrib
# pkg upgrade
Portmaster users:
# portmaster databases/postgresql15-server databases/postgresql15-contrib
# portmaster -a
Portupgrade users:
# portinstall databases/postgresql15-server databases/postgresql15-contrib
# portupgrade -a
After installing the new PostgreSQL version you need to convert
all your databases to new version:
# su -l postgres -c "/usr/local/bin/initdb --encoding=utf-8 --lc-collate=C -D /var/db/postgres/data15 -U postgres"
# su -l postgres -c "pg_upgrade -b /tmp/pg-upgrade/usr/local/bin/ -d /var/db/postgres/data13/ -B /usr/local/bin/ -D /var/db/postgres/data15/ -U postgres "
Now the migration is finished. You can start PostgreSQL again with:
# service postgresql start
ATTENTION:
1) The default user changed from "pgsql" to "postgres" in 11. The migration steps above now assume
the "postgres" database user and FreeBSD user.
2) See the updating entry 20190829 if you are updating from a release prior to 11.
3) If you use non-default initdb options, you have to adjust the initdb-command accordingly

The CPU microcode ports have been reorganized. The new ports are:
sysutils/cpu-microcode, sysutils/cpu-microcode-amd,
sysutils/cpu-microcode-intel, and cpu-microcode-rc.
To install all CPU microcode packages:
pkg install cpu-microcode
To install only packages for a specific CPU vendor:
pkg install cpu-microcode-amd
or
pkg install cpu-microcode-intel
To give users time to adjust to these changes, sysutils/devcpu-data will
remain in the tree until the end of 2023. The port has been converted to a
metaport and now provides the same functionality as sysutils/cpu-microcode.

Zeek has been upgraded to 6.0.0 and the NETMAP option was removed;
it was too difficult to build it without zeek being installed in

The consensus was that this was a rarely used feature, please
reach out to me if need this (I've done some work on a new
security/zeek-netmap port that is probably the right way forward).
When I upgraded zeek on my systems I found some cruft left over
from previous versions. The way I recommend upgrading from 5.0.9 to
6.0.0 is:

configuration (e.g. /usr/local/share/netbox/netbox/configuration.py):
PLUGINS = ['netbox_secretstore', 'netbox_secrets']
4. Run NetBox migrations:
# cd /usr/local/share/netbox
# python3.9 manage.py migrate
5. Re-adjust the indices for the netbox-secrets plugin:
# python3.9 manage.py sqlsequencereset netbox_secrets > output.sql
6. Run the output of the previous command in the database, e.g.:
# psql -d NETBOXDB < output.sql
7. You can now remove netbox-secretstore from the application by removing
it from the PLUGINS line in the netbox configuration:
PLUGINS = ['netbox_secrets']
8. Collect static files of the netbox-secrets plugin:
# python3.9 manage.py collectstatic --no-input
9. Restart WSGI/httpd environment (supervisord/apache/nginx/etc.).
10. You may have clean up your database of the old tables manually, e.g.:
DROP TABLE netbox_secretstore_secret;
DROP TABLE netbox_secretstore_secretrole;
DROP TABLE netbox_secretstore_sessionkey;
DROP TABLE netbox_secretstore_userkey;
11. Uninstall security/py-netbox-secretstore.

AFFECTS: users of USES=nodejs, www/node*, www/npm* and www/yarn*
AUTHOR: sunpoet@FreeBSD.org
The current USES=nodejs has the following issues:
- www/node is not the default version while www/node16 is.
- It also means inconsistent naming of node ports.
- www/npm duplicates with www/npm-node16.
- www/yarn duplicates with www/yarn-node16.
The notable changes are introduced to fix the above issues:
- Rewrite Mk/Uses/nodejs.mk.
- Add new LTS version of nodejs (www/node18).
- Add new current version of nodejs (www/node19).
- Change default nodejs version from 16 to 18 (latest LTS),
- Use consistent naming for all supported node versions.
- Convert www/node, www/npm and www/yarn to meta ports.
After these changes:
- All supported node versions are named as node{14,16,18,19}.
- www/node is a meta port which depends on the default version
(e.g. www/node18)
- www/npm is a meta port which depends on the default version
(e.g. www/npm-node18)
- www/yarn is a meta port which depends on the default version

AFFECTS: users of gstreamer1-* when upgrading via port builds on the host
AUTHOR: riggs@FreeBSD.org
The update of the gstreamer1-* ports to 1.20.3 requires a clean install of
gstreamer1-* ports. In particular, when trying to update ports in-place using
portupgrade or portmaster, the builds are likely to fail due to dependency
mismatches. If this is your preferred update path, you need to deinstall
(pkg delete -f) gstreamer1 and the plugins before reinstalling them from
the ports tree.
Note that pkg upgrade will do the right thing: If you use official FreeBSD
packages or build your own set of packages using poudriere, nothing special
is needed.

AFFECTS: updating x11-servers/xorg-server from a port
AUTHOR: se@FreeBSD.org
The xorg-server port now has a library dependency on x11/libxcvt,
which cannot be installed when the previous version of xorg-server
is present. To be able to update xorg-server from a port, the
previous version needs to be manually deinstalled to allow libxcvt
to be installed.

AFFECTS: users of Erlang and Elixir
AUTHOR: dch@FreeBSD.org
For more than a decade, the Elixir Mix tool and the Erlang rebar
or erlang.mk build tools have been the de facto way of installing
and managing packages for specific applications.
All main-stream applications, from Riak, CouchDB, RabbitMQ, Phoenix,
and Elixir, expect that packages are fetched and compiled into an OTP
Release, with in-built version locking, external package management.
There is no point in maintaining a large number of libraries, that
are used neither for development, nor operations.
Users are directed to https://rebar3.org/ https://erlang.mk/ or
https://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/mix-otp/introduction-to-mix.html
to fetch custom packages.

AFFECTS: users of python
AUTHOR: thierry@FreeBSD.org
The default version of python3 and python was switched to 3.9.
For ports users wanting to keep version 3.8 as default,
add DEFAULT_VERSIONS+= python=3.8 python3=3.8 to make.conf
Following procedures may ease the upgrade:
For users of pre-build packages:
# sh
# for i in $(pkg query -g %n 'py38-*'); do pkg set -yn ${i}:py39-${i#py38-}; done
# pkg upgrade
For portmaster users:
# sh
# portmaster -o lang/python39 python38
# REINSTALL="$(pkg info -o "*py38*" | awk '{printf "%s ", $2}')"
# pkg delete -f "*py38*"
# portmaster $REINSTALL
# REBUILD=$(pkg query -g "%n:%dn" '*' | grep py3 | grep -v py39 | cut -d : -f 1 | sort -u)
# portmaster $REBUILD
# REBUILD2=$(pkg list | grep python-38 | xargs pkg which | awk '{print $6}' | sort -u)
# portmaster $REBUILD2
Final steps (for pre-built packages & portmaster):
If no longer required, Python 3.8 can be removed via
"pkg remove python38" and the directory /usr/local/lib/python3.8 can
then be deleted afterwards, if not empty.

AFFECTS: users of sysutils/fusefs-bindfs
AUTHOR: doralitze@chaotikum.org
Bindfs defaults to use direct I/O since version 1.16. While this results
in major performance improvements as well as several bug fixes, this also
breaks direct legacy calls to mmap. If your application still uses them
consider these two options:
1. Mount using `--no-direct-io`
2. Upgrade your application in order to query mapping guards
20220623:
AFFECTS: users of science/gramps
AUTHOR: fernape@FreeBSD.org
databases/py-bsddb3 is deprecated and will be removed in the future. With that
gramps will lose the ability to load family trees using Berkeley DB.
It is suggested to migrate all family trees using Berkeley DB by exporting
them to gramps xml and import that gramps xml into a family tree using sqlite
as database.
20220620:
AFFECTS: users of www/selenium
AUTHOR: fernape@FreeBSD.org
The port has changed startup args so if you are using selenium_args= in
rc.conf you need to add the parameter "standalone" manually.
20220616:
AFFECTS: users of net-mgmt/netbox
AUTHOR: kai@FreeBSD.org
/!\ WARNING /!\
The NetBox 3.2 release contains major changes, so at least items 1.), 2.)
and 3.) must be checked before proceeding with the upgrade!
/!\ WARNING /!\
1. This release includes a database migration that will remove the "asn",
"contact_name", "contact_phone", and "contact_email" fields from the
site model. (These fields have been superseded by the ASN and contact
models introduced in NetBox v3.1.)
To protect against the accidental destruction of data, the upgrade
process will fail if any sites still have data in any of these fields.
To bypass this safeguard, set the NETBOX_DELETE_LEGACY_DATA environment
variable when running the upgrade script, which will permit the
destruction of legacy data.
A set of migration scripts is available to assist with the migration of
legacy site data:
https://github.com/netbox-community/migration-scripts
2. NetBox v3.2 requires Python 3.8 or later.
3. If the NetBox Plugin "net-mgmt/py-netbox-plugin-extension" is used,
please disable it before the migrations are applied. This can be done
by removing the entry "netbox_plugin_extensions" from the "PLUGINS"
section in the NetBox configuration.
Once the upgrade is done, this port/package can be safely removed as
it's no longer required.
4. Please also check the pkg-message and the changelogs for further info.
20220608:
AFFECTS: devel/autoconf-wrapper, devel/autoconf213
AUTHOR: tijl@FreeBSD.org
These ports have been renamed to devel/autoconf-switch and devel/autoconf2.13
respectively. If your favourite port updating tool cannot handle that then
just remove the packages with "pkg delete" and then install the new port.
20220607:
AFFECTS: security/openssh-portable

20220513:
AFFECTS: devel/nexus2-oss
AUTHOR: michael.osipov@siemens.com
Nexus 2.15.x introduces incompatible configuration changes. You
must review changes in ETCDIR/wrapper.conf and ETCDIR/jetty*.xml
with updated samples as well as NEXUS_WORKDIR/conf/logback-nexus.xml
with its origin from
DATADIR/nexus/WEB-INF/lib/nexus-core-VERSION.jar!/META-INF/log/logback-nexus.xml,

update files in place otherwise your instance will not properly
work after the update.
20220510
AFFECTS: sysutils/zrepl
AUTHOR: monwarez@gmail.com
The zrepl update to 0.5.0.8 includes the following breaking changes:
- The Prometheus metric zrepl_version_daemon was converted to zrepl_start_time
The metric still reports the zrepl version in a label.
But the metric *value* is now the Unix timestamp at the time the daemon was started.
The Grafana dashboard in zrepl examples directory has been updated.
20220502:
AFFECTS: mail/mutt
AUTHOR: dereks@lifeofadishwasher.com
Default header cache option has been changed to the new option LMDB using
databases/lmdb. The BDB option still exists but now uses databases/db18 due
to the EOL of databases/db5.
20220501:
AFFECTS: users of drm-current-kmod and drm-devel-kmod
AUTHOR: manu@FreeBSD.org
Both ports where removed.
If you were using either one of them directly (i.e. without using

one of the following commands.
If you use pkg with binary packages:
# pkg set -o databases/redis:databases/redis62
# pkg upgrade
If you use portmaster:
# portmaster -o databases/redis62 databases/redis
If you use portupgrade:
# portupgrade -o databases/redis62 databases/redis
20220426:
AFFECTS: users of deskutils/grantleetheme
AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org
The pkg update of deskutils/grantleetheme to 22.04 can fail due
to a filesystem location having changed from being a file to being
a directory. This leads to pkg's temporary file creation throwing
an error.
To update to KDE Gear 22.04 please run
# pkg delete -f grantleetheme
prior to the update.
20220424:
AFFECTS: users of emulators/qemu
AUTHOR: bofh@FreeBSD.org

# portupgrade -o emulators/qemu6 emulators/qemu
20220421:
AFFECTS: users of lang/ruby27
AUTHOR: yasu@FreeBSD.org
The default ruby version has been updated from 2.7 to 3.0.
If you compile your own ports you may keep 2.7 as the default version by
adding the following lines to your /etc/make.conf file:
#
# Keep ruby 2.7 as default version
#
DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=ruby=2.7
If you wish to update to the new default version, you need to first stop any
software that uses ruby. Then, you will need to follow these steps, depending
upon how you manage your system.
If you use pkg, simply upgrade:
# pkg upgrade
If you do not use pkg, please check entry 20190420.
The description there should also work for this version.
20220413:
AFFECTS: users of net-im/py-matrix-synapse
AUTHOR: ports@skyforge.at
Synapse will now refuse to start up if open registration is enabled,
in order to help mitigate abuse across the federation. If you would
like to provide registration to anyone, consider adding email,
recaptcha or token-based verification in order to prevent automated
registration from bad actors. This check can be disabled by setting
the enable_registration_without_verification option in your
homeserver configuration file to true. More details are available in
the upgrade notes[0].
Synapse will additionally now refuse to start when using PostgreSQL
with a non-C values for COLLATE and CTYPE, unless the config flag
allow_unsafe_locale, found in the database section of the
configuration file, is set to true. See the upgrade notes[1] for

AFFECTS: users of sysutils/screen
AUTHOR: cy@FreeBSD.org
As of sysutils/screen-4.9.0_5, the MULTUSER option is default, reverting
to the traditional setuid-root behavior. People who wish to secure their
screen install must terminate all screen sessions, then install screen
without the MULTIUSER option. The option was reversed because it caused
too much astonishment among users of screen.
20220401:
AFFECTS: security/sshguard
AUTHOR: kevinz5000@gmail.com
Blacklisting is now disabled by default to avoid overriding the setting in
sshguard.conf. To enable blacklisting, uncomment the BLACKLIST_FILE line in
sshguard.conf.
20220329:
AFFECTS: users of sysutils/screen
AUTHOR: cy@FreeBSD.org
As of sysutils/screen-4.9.0_3, the multiuser feature is not supported
by default. The multiuser feature requires setuid root to function.
This creates a security risk. Some Linux distributions have had
non-setuuid root screen for a dozen or more years. FreeBSD is following
suit. A new MULTIUSER option has been added to enable users to install
setuid root screen. The MULTIUSER option default is OFF.
Users who wish to use the multiuser feature may,
- Build screen using the MULTIUSER option, or
- Poudriere users can use poudriere-options to enable the MULTIUSER
option, or
- Users can chmod the setuid bit for ${LOCALBASE}/bin/screen-4.9.0,
making screen setuid root to enable the multiuser feature.
20220326:
AFFECTS: users of misc/freebsd-doc-*
AUTHOR: blackend@FreeBSD.org
A change to the doc toolchain prevents the build of individual
localized HTML versions of the documentation without building the
en_US version. HTML option is currently disabled until a good
solution is found. PDF version, the default option, is now the only
available option.
Please re-run "make config" to pick up this new default.
20220313:
AFFECTS: users of net/unison
AUTHOR: madpilot@FreeBSD.org
unison has been updated to version 2.52. The new version introduces
a new wire protocol and on disk archive format. This new version
is compatible with 2.51 clients for communication, so it's now
possible to upgrade one side and then the other.
The archive files are automatically converted to the new version,
but once they are converted the y are incompatible with the
previous version.
In case you need version 2.51, the previous version of the port
is preserved in net/unison251.

AFFECTS: users of lang/php8[01][-extensions]?
AUTHOR: bofh@FreeBSD.org
Non-Default OPTION MYSQL80 has been removed in lieu of making
php8[01]-openssl as part of DEFAULT php8[01] installation. Although
for php74 it is not the case. Ports that depends on
security/php8[01]-openssl will no longer be installed as these have
been removed. There is no side effect of this for ports which have
USE_PHP=openssl. In case for php74 as the default php74-openssl will
be installed otherwise it will be used from php installation.
If you are using pkg, you have to remove php8[01]-openssl manually after
the upgrade :
# pkg info \*php8\* > ~/installed-php-ports-list
# pkg upgrade -y
# pkg delete -f php8[01]-openssl
# service -R
While rebuilding from ports users old php.conf is not overwritten. So
have to manually remove the ports. For portmaster users:
# sh
# REINSTALL="$(pkg info -o "*php80*" | grep -v openssl | awk '{printf "%s ", $2}')"
# pkg delete -f "*php80*"
# portmaster $REINSTALL
# portmaster -a

AUTHOR: jrm@FreeBSD.org
To avoid problems when editors/emacs or editors/emacs-devel are
updated, the emacs major version has been removed from these package
names.
For example, the old and new package names of devel/magit are
-----------------------------------------------------------
| Old Package Name | New Package Name |
|-------------------------- |-----------------------------|
| magit-emacs27 | magit |
| magit-emacs27_nox | magit-emacs_nox |

-----------------------------------------------------------
To handle these final package name changes, follow a similar procedure
as the one described in the 20200811 entry. That is, simply running
`pkg upgrade` will not upgrade, e.g., foo-emacs27_nox to
foo-emacs_nox.

versions of these libraries have changed. Normally, you can obtain the
list of dependent software by running the following command:
# pkg info -r libressl
Then you should rebuild all ports depending on libressl to avoid dangling
shared library dependencies.

AFFECTS: users of sysutils/devcpu-data
AUTHOR: jrm@FreeBSD.org
The RC variable name microcode_cpus is now deprecated. Users should
instead use the variable microcode_update_cpus.
Two new ports were branched from sysutils/devcpu-data,
sysustils/devcpu-data-amd and sysustils/devcpu-data-intel. The two
new ports contain only the CPU microcode updates for each vendor and
sysutils/devcpu-data now only contains an RC script. Both new ports
are on-by-default, optional dependencies of sysutils/devcpu-data.
20211101:
AFFECTS: users of textproc/redisearch
AUTHOR: osa@FreeBSD.org
The textproc/redisearch port has been updated to the recent stable
release - v2.2. Users wanting to stay on v2.0 can replace
textproc/redisearch with textproc/redisearch20 with one of the
following commands:
# pkg install textproc/redisearch20
or
# portmaster -o textproc/redisearch20 textproc/redisearch
or
# portupgrade -o textproc/redisearch20 textproc/redisearch
NOTE: The textproc/redisearch20 brings a new name for the module,
i.e. redisearch20.so, so be careful.
20211024:
AFFECTS: sysutils/beats7
AUTHOR: otis@FreeBSD.org
The following breaking changes apply to beats 7.15.0 and newer:
- All beats:
Loading Kibana assets (dashboards, index templates) rely on Saved Object API.
So to provide a reliable service, Beats can only import and export dashboards
using at least Kibana 7.15.
- Filebeat:
- Remove all alias fields pointing to ECS fields from modules. This affects
the Suricata and Traefik modules.
- Fix Crowdstrike ingest pipeline that was creating flattened process fields.
- Rename log.path to log.file.path in filestream to be consistent with log
input and ECS.
- Heartbeat:
- Remove long deprecated watch_poll functionality.
- Fix inconsistency in event.dataset values between heartbeat and fleet by
always setting this value to the monitor type / fleet dataset.
- Metricbeat:
- Fix Elasticsearch jvm.gc.collectors.old being exposed as young

AFFECTS: users of databases/postgresql* and other software using PostgreSQL to run
AUTHOR: kbowling@FreeBSD.org
The default version of PostgreSQL has been switched from 12 to 13.
The upgrade procedure can use up twice the space the databases
currently needs. If you have a big amount of stored data take a
closer look at the manpage of pg_upgrade for avoidance and/or
speedup of the upgrade.
The upgrade instructions consider a basic usage and do not match
complex scenarios like replication, sharding, or similar.
Upgrade instructions:
First stop your PostgreSQL, create PostgreSQL-binaries and backup your data.
If you have another Version of PostgreSQL installed, for example 12.8, your
files are named according to this.
# service postgresql stop
# pkg create postgresql12-server postgresql12-contrib
# mkdir /tmp/pg-upgrade
# tar xf postgresql12-server-12.8.pkg -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
# tar xf postgresql12-contrib-12.8.pkg -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
# pkg delete -f databases/postgresql12-server databases/postgresql12-contrib databases/postgresql12-client
Now update PostgreSQL:
pkg user:
# pkg install databases/postgresql13-server databases/postgresql13-contrib
# pkg upgrade
Portmaster users:
# portmaster databases/postgresql13-server databases/postgresql13-contrib
# portmaster -a
Portupgrade users:
# portinstall databases/postgresql13-server databases/postgresql13-contrib
# portupgrade -a
After installing the new PostgreSQL version you need to convert
all your databases to new version:
# su -l postgres -c "/usr/local/bin/initdb --encoding=utf-8 --lc-collate=C -D /var/db/postgres/data13 -U postgres"
# su -l postgres -c "pg_upgrade -b /tmp/pg-upgrade/usr/local/bin/ -d /var/db/postgres/data12/ -B /usr/local/bin/ -D /var/db/postgres/data13/ -U postgres "
Now the migration is finished. You can start PostgreSQL again with:
# service postgresql start
ATTENTION:
1) The default user changed from "pgsql" to "postgres" in 11. The migration steps above now assume
the "postgres" database user and FreeBSD user.
2) See the updating entry 20190829 if you are updating from a release prior to 11.
3) If you use non-default initdb options, you have to adjust the initdb-command accordingly
20211023:
AFFECTS: users of www/node
AUTHOR: bhughes@FreeBSD.org
The www/node port has been updated to Node.js v17.0.0, the latest
upstream release. A new port, www/node16, has been created for the
upcoming v16.x LTS branch. Users wanting to stay on v16.x can replace
www/node with www/node16 with one of the following commands:
# pkg install www/node16
or
# portmaster -o www/node16 www/node
or
# portupgrade -o www/node16 www/node
20211012:
AFFECTS: users of devel/git
AUTHOR: garga@FreeBSD.org
devel/git port was split into multiple sub-ports that depend on devel/git
and install additional files:
- devel/git-cvs - CVS related scripts and man pages
- devel/git-gui - GUI related scripts and man pages
- devel/git-p4 - Perforce related scripts and man pages
- devel/git-svn - Subversion related scripts and man pages
Due to these changes, CVS, GUI, PERFORCE, and SUBVERSION options
as well as gui and svn flavors were removed from the port.
20211010:
AFFECTS: users of gtk2 flavored devel/geany*
AUTHOR: madpilot@FreeBSD.org
Upstream dropped support for gtk2. Due to this the ports are now
unflavored, installing only with gtk3 support.
If you are already using the default gtk3 flavor will get the new
version with a simple "pkg upgrade".
To upgrade when using the gtk2 flavors you need to use "pkg install"
to install the new unflavored gtk3 packages, pkg will automatically
uninstall the old gtk2 flavors.
If using ports, you will need to uninstall all geany packages and
its plugins and reinstall from an updated ports tree.
The "geany-plugin-multiterm" plugin was only available as a gtk2
flavor when installing the gtk2 flavor of geany and has not been
ported to gtk3, so has been removed from the tree, so the
geany-plugin-multiterm-gtk2 package should be removed from the system.
20211007:
AFFECTS: user of security/clamav
AUTHOR: yasu@FreeBSD.org
Upstream changed end-of-life policy and introduced long time support
(LTS) feature release.
* LTS feature release will be identified approximately every two
years and supported for at least three years from the initial
publication date of that LTS feature version.
* Regular (non-LTS) feature releases will be supported for at least
four months from the initial publication date of the next feature
release or until the feature release after that is published.
According to it new port security/clamav-lts is added for users who
want to use LTS version of ClamAV.
Users wanting to switch to LTS version can replace security/clamav
with security/clamav-lts with one of following commands.
If you use pkg with binary packages:
# pkg set -o security/clamav:security/clamav-lts
# pkg upgrade
If you use portmaster:
# portmaster -o security/clamav-lts security/clamav
If you use portupgrade:
# portupgrade -o security/clamav-lts security/clamav
20211006:
AFFECTS: users of misc/freebsd-doc-*
AUTHOR: blackend@FreeBSD.org
The misc/freebsd-doc-* ports have been updated to the new doc toolchain,
and use a somewhat different arrangement of directories and symlinks,
which pkg 1.17 does not handle well.
Users are encouraged to delete the misc/freebsd-doc-* ports, then
reinstall the new ones without using the pkg upgrade facility.
20211006:
AFFECTS: users of net/kafkacat
AUTHOR: sergey@akhmatov.ru
kafkacat has been renamed to kcat upstream.
So switch to net/kcat instead.
20211004:
AFFECTS: users of net-mgmt/netbox
AUTHOR: kai@FreeBSD.org
/!\ WARNING /!\
The NetBox 3.0 release contains major changes, so at least items 1.), 2.)
and 3.) must be checked before proceeding with the upgrade!
/!\ WARNING /!\
1. Please ensure that your local installation of net-mgmt/netbox is at
the 2.11 release before attempting to upgrade to NetBox 3.0 or later.
2. Please also note that the previously deprecated secrets functionality
has been removed with NetBox 3.0. This means, all of the secrets still
remain in the database once upgraded, only the secrets functionality on
the part of NetBox is no longer given.
In order to continue to be able to access the stored secrets as usual
(and then possibly migrate them to another solution, e.g.
security/vault), please install the security/py-netbox-secretstore port
once NetBox has been upgraded to 3.x and follow its installation
instructions how to enable the plugin.
3. If plugins are used, they should be temporarily deactivated to avoid
disruptions during the upgrade process.
4. Please also check the pkg-message and the changelogs for further info.
20211004:
AFFECTS: users of www/py-pyjwt
AUTHOR: rhurlin@FreeBSD.org
To make it possible to easily import py-pyjwt v2.x the current port was
moved to a versioned directory.
If you use portmaster:
portmaster -o www/py-pyjwt1 www/py-pyjwt
If you use portupgrade:
portupgrade -fo www/py-pyjwt1 www/py-pyjwt
If you use pkg with binary packages:

AFFECTS: x11-wm/cage, x11-wm/hikari, x11-wm/labwc, x11-wm/sway, x11-wm/wayfire
AUTHOR: jbeich@FreeBSD.org
SUID option has been removed in favor of seatd-launch(1) which doesn't
require special handling in every consumer and doesn't bypass group
permissions. If you've already enabled seatd service or use consolekit2
then nothing changes. Otherwise,
$ sway
00:00:00.001 [ERROR] [wlr] [libseat] [libseat/libseat.c:83] No backend was able to open a seat

Replace "sway" with your compositor e.g., "cage", "hikari", "labwc", "wayfire".
20210907:
AFFECTS: consumers of math/eigen[23]
AUTHOR: adridg@FreeBSD.org
math/eigen2 has been marked deprecated. There do not seem to be any
consumers in FreeBSD ports.
math/eigen3 has had its options re-vamped. The default options previously
pulled in multiple useless library dependencies. The options also forced
a specific BLAS implementation. The new options depend only on the
default BLAS (whatever USES=blaslapack picks), but this can be turned
off. The previous multiple useless libraries -- which are not useless
when running the tests in Eigen -- are now hidden behind the default-off
TEST option.
Users of a carefully-tuned Eigen build should re-evaluate the options
available.
20210902:
AFFECTS: users of editors/vim
AUTHOR: adamw@FreeBSD.org
The vim ports have been completely reworked to take advantage of flavors.
The biggest change is that the `vim' package is now console-only. If
you want the GTk3 GUI, you'll need to install the `vim-gtk3' package
instead. All the GUI toolkits have their own package now: vim-gtk3,
vim-gtk2, -athena, -motif, and -x11. The vim-tiny package still exists.
Also: only python3 bindings are included now. There are very few plugins
written in Perl or Ruby, so there really wasn't a need to bundle those
languages with Vim. They still exist as OPTIONS, so you can still enable
them if you'd like. Also, support for py27 has been dropped.
20210901:
AFFECTS: users of audio/ampache
AUTHOR: crees@FreeBSD.org
With the upgrade to Ampache 5.0.0, the root Ampache folder has changed
to %%WWWDIR%%/ampache/public. Please update your web server aliases,
for example if you use Apache, then in httpd.conf make sure the lines
look like this:
Alias /ampache /usr/local/www/ampache/public
<Directory "/usr/local/www/ampache/public">
If you have customised your .htaccess files to allow for a different
alias, you'll need to move them to the new location after upgrading:
# sh -c 'cd /usr/local/www/ampache && for f in */.htaccess; do mv $f public/$f; done'
More upgrade notes can be found on Github:
https://github.com/ampache/ampache/releases/tag/5.0.0
20210823:
AFFECTS: users of mail/mu
AUTHOR: hrs@FreeBSD.org
mail/mu now uses XDG Base Directory Specification for the default
locations for various files. The mu database now lives under
~/.cache/mu rather than ~/.mu by default. After upgrading,
move the contents under ~/.mu to ~/.cache/mu.
20210823:
AFFECTS: users of mail/postfixadmin
AUTHOR: ports.maintainer@evilphi.com

AFFECTS: users of sysutils/beats7
AUTHOR: otis@FreeBSD.org
Beats may not be sending data to some distributions of Elasticsearch
In this release, Elastic is enabling a licensing change that was broadly
communicated earlier in 2021. This change would imply that 7.13 instances of
Beats would fail to connect to 7.10 or earlier open source distributions of
Elasticsearch and Kibana.
The most visible effect is that sysutils/beats7 users can expect
difficulties to send data to Elastic instances hosted in AWS.

AFFECTS: users of x11/rxvt-unicode
AUTHOR: thierry@FreeBSD.org
Since 9.26, there is a regression in resource parsing, which no longer
accepts a prefix of the form "URxvt*keysym" ("*." is equivalent to "*").
Changing "*." to "." should make your bindings work again.
20210704:
AFFECTS: users of misc/qtchooser
AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org
QtChooser allows you to select your version of Qt among those installed.
However, this tool is no longer supported upstream and will not be
available for Qt6.
By default, our Qt installations are done in:
${LOCALBASE}/lib/qt${QT_VERSION} as recommended.
We have added symbolic linking for the main binaries to
${LOCALBASE}/bin with the suffix -qt5.

AFFECTS: users of misc/openhab2
AUTHOR: netchild@FreeBSD.org
The openhab v3 port has been committed. Upstream has removed the
version from the name, as such the FreeBSD port follows in all places
(start script name, directory names, ...).
Users are encouraged to migrate from misc/openhab2 to misc/openhab.
No automatic config migration is available Both versions can be
installed in parallel, but an users has to take care to not run
both at the same time on the same port.
20210617:
AFFECTS: users of graphics/mesa-libs and x11/nvidia-driver
AUTHOR: kbowling@FreeBSD.org
Some libraries from mesa-libs are now provided by libglvnd while
others were renamed. nvidia-driver already used libglvnd but bundled
a copy which is now provided as a separate package. When building
outside poudriere make sure to remove mesa-libs and nvidia-driver
first in order to avoid conflict with libglvnd.
For portmaster users:

AFFECTS: Users of shells/bash, shells/bash-static with PORTS_READLINE=off
AUTHOR: olce.freebsd@certner.fr
Bundled readline now will use LOCALBASE/etc/inputrc as its ultimate default
inputrc file (instead of /etc/inputrc). This puts these ports in line with
what devel/readline has been doing recently (since 20210103).
20210414:
AFFECTS: users of graphics/OpenEXR or graphics/ilmbase
AUTHOR: mandree@FreeBSD.org
graphics/ilmbase was removed in favor of math/Imath 3.0.1,
and graphics/OpenEXR was updated to 3.0.1. Ports that depend on
OpenEXR and/or ilmbase according to INDEX were patched,
for ports where OpenEXR is an option that defaults to off, these
typical items needs to be changed - file bug reports in that case,
preferably with tested patches:
- The IlmBase parts Imath and half are now repackaged as Imath
- The IlmThread and Iex libraries are now part of OpenEXR
- Some header files were rearranged accordingly, into
${LOCALBASE}/include/OpenEXR vs. ${LOCALBASE}/include/Imath
- Some code needs a few #include statements added, often
#include <ImfHeader.h> or #include <ImfFrameBuffer.h>
- Some classes were removed, and the C++11 standard library
features need to be used, f. i. std::numeric_limits.
- Some code used Int64 or SInt64 should use uint64_t or int64_t.

20210328:
AFFECTS: users of www/caddy
AUTHOR: adamw@FreeBSD.org
The default locations for caddy runtime files have changed.
- Caddy's runtime log is now /var/log/caddy/caddy.log
(was /var/log/caddy.log)
- Automatic SSL certs are now stored in /var/db/caddy/data/caddy
(was /root/.local/share/caddy)
- Configuration autosaves are now stored in /var/db/caddy/config/caddy
(was /root/.config/caddy)
You can change these defaults. See /usr/local/etc/rc.d/caddy for the
list of settings.
20210322:
AFFECTS: users of net/wireguard
AUTHOR: decke@FreeBSD.org
A wireguard kernel implementation supporting FreeBSD 12.1 and newer was
added as net/wireguard-kmod recently.
The new default for users of net/wireguard is the kernel module.
If you experience problems with it you can switch back to wireguard-go
by removing net/wireguard-kmod and making sure net/wireguard-go is
installed.
The userland tools wg-quick(8) and wg(8) try to use kernel support if
the kernel module is available and otherwise fall back to wireguard-go
automatically. Config files are fully compatible.
20210317:
AFFECTS: users of security/strongswan
AUTHOR: driesm@FreeBSD.org
The stroke starter interface has been deprecated by upstream
for some time now. The default interface for controlling the charon
daemon has switched from stroke to vici. Users still using the
legacy config files such as ipsec.conf and ipsec.secret (stroke, starter)
can easily revert to the old behavior by:
# sysrc strongswan_interface="stroke"
It is recommended to use the vici interface which is configured by swanctl.conf.
Check : https://wiki.strongswan.org/projects/strongswan/wiki/Fromipsecconf

20210313:
AFFECTS: users of net-mgmt/phpipam
AUTHOR: marko.cupac@mimar.rs
ipaddresses table in phpipam database is likely to contain incorrect datetime
values which prevent successful upgrade. Make sure to create backup of
phpipam database. Before starting upgrade wizard in web interface run the
following SQL query on phpipam database:
UPDATE ipaddresses SET lastSeen='1970-01-01 00:00:01' WHERE lastSeen < '0000-01-01 00:00:00';

AFFECTS: users of textproc/redisearch
AUTHOR: osa@FreeBSD.org

following commands:
# pkg install textproc/redisearch16
or
# portmaster -o textproc/redisearch16 textproc/redisearch

AFFECTS: users of emulators/virtualbox-ose
AUTHOR: madpilot@FreeBSD.org
emulators/virtualbox-ose has been updated to 6.1.18. This new
version only works on amd64 hardware.
Previous version 5.x of the virtualbox ports have been preserved
as emulators/virtualbox-ose-legacy and similarly named ports for
the other parts.
If you can't run the latest version or wish to stay with the old
version, please install the legacy ports.
Also the additions at present build successfully only for amd64.
If you need i386 additions you can fallback to the old legacy
ones.
NOTE: There is no support for moving saved running machine states
across major updates of virtualbox. It is recommended to properly
shutdown all virtual machines before upgrading. Otherwise the saved
state can simply be discarded after the upgrade, if it's not
important to preserve it.
It should also be possible to downgrade to the legacy ports and
shutdown the machine properly from the saved state and then upgrade
back again.
