06/30 ⇒ Did VictoriaLogs miss any logs during the reboot? Yesterday, I modified r730-01 by Running pkgbasify on FreeBSD 15.0 – as a consequence, my log collecting jail was offline. Did it miss any logs? https://dan.langille.org/2026/06/30/did-victorialogs-miss-any-logs-during-the-reboot/

@NebulaTide free space. Remember to occasionally clear the package cache. Long ago (much more than a year) I learnt the hard way with poudriere jails. I probably never reported the issue, but (at a glance) it might have been what was reported last month: pkgbase pkg cache lacks cleaning · Issue #1343 · freebsd/poudriere — <https://github.com/freebsd/poudriere/issues/1343>#FreeBSD #pkgbase #jails Cc @ianthetechie

It was a simple upgrade, not a minor or major upgrade. Last week: pkgbase major upgrade from FreeBSD 14.4 to 15.1-RC2: an example : r/freebsd

https://www.reddit.com/r/freebsd/comments/1ty5njr/pkgbase_major_upgrade_from_freebsd_144_to_151rc2/ This upgrade blended: part of the official announcement for 15.1-RC2 – altered for compatibility with the major upgrade part of Emrion's https://forums.freebsd.org/posts/762515 – adapted for my preferred shell, /bin/tcsh. … Packages for the third release candidate, RC3, were not available at the time.

As FreeBSD PKGBASE moves faster then its documentation - some light on these:- *.pkgnew- *.pkgsave- .pkgtemp.*#freebsd #PKGBASEhttps://vermaden.wordpress.com/2026/05/10/freebsd-pkgbase-minor-upgrades/#comment-27442
