Snapshots packages in OpenBSD release
Hi all,
I'm using an OpenBSD 6.5 release, is is possible to update the installed ports to the snapshots ports using pkg_add -u -D snap? would my OpenBSD work properly after, or I can only upgrade my ports to the stable release ? Thanks, |

Another option would be to use sysupgrade(8) to move from 6.5 to a snapshot, and then you can use the combination of sysupgrade and pkg_add -u to effectively do rolling release.
sysupgrade was backported to 6.5-stable, so you can grab that to get started. |

Thanks for the answers
