         Native Xorg was upgraded.  Builds will need a clean objdir for          The i386 port was switched to i486 default toolchain.  This requires
         src/external/mit/xorg.  Upgrading a system from sets will not          cleaning your src/tools directory and $TOOLDIR and rebuilding them.
         work properly yet as the /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/pc  
         subdirectory has been changed into a file, and this needs to  20090126:
         be manually "rm -r"'ed before installing xbase.tgz.          The __posix_fadvise50 system call changed assembly stub type. You need to
           'rm -f __posix_fadvise50.*' in the libc build directory to avoid using
           the old assembly stub.

         pkg_install now depends on the pkgdb cache for automatic conflict          pkg_install now depends on the pkgdb cache for automatic conflict
         detection.  It is recommented to rebuild the cache with          detection.  It is recommented to rebuild the cache with
         ``pkg_admin rebuild''.          ``pkg_admin rebuild''.
   
         audit-packages.conf(5) has been superseded by pkg_install.conf(5).  20090110:
         The default configuration is the same.  Support for pkg_view(1) has          time_t and dev_t have been bumped to 64 bit quantities. To upgrade:
         been retired.  The functionality of audit-packages(1) and          1. Make sure your kernel has COMPAT_50 in it. Build and install.
         download-vulnerability-list(1) has moved into pkg_admin(1), wrapper             This is needed even in the MODULAR kernel because there is
         scripts that handle the common use cases are provided.             conditionally compiled code in rtsock.c.
           2. make sure build.sh completes and the binaries in a chroot work
              before installing.
           3. If you don't use build.sh and you build directly to root, and
              your build breaks in the middle, don't despair. Make sure headers
              are installed properly, and start building libraries first libc
              and libutil, install them and then continue building all the
              libraries in src/lib and src/gnu/lib and install them. Once
              the new libraries are installed, you can restart the build.
           4. If you compile packages and you notice link time warnings,
              rebuild the required packages to update their shared libraries.
              Any package you rebuild will require rebuilding all the packages
              that depend on it.
           5. Next time you run pwd_mkdb with the new binary, the file
              will be upgraded and it will not be backwards compatible.
           6. The utmpx/wtmpx files (/var/run/utmpx and /var/log/wtmpx, see
              lastlogx(5)) have been versioned, and there is a heuristic
              for utmp. You are better off removing the old files after
              upgrading.  The automated clearing of /var/run during
              boot, and the automated rotating of files in /var/log by
              newsyslog(8), may mean that you do not have to remove the
              files manually.
           7. The optional accounting file (/var/account/acct, see
              accton(8)) has not been versioned, and will need to be
              removed.  The automatic rotation of the accounting file by
              /etc/daily limits the bad consequences of failure to remove
              the file.
   
   20081219:
           config(1) has been updated, and one of the files it creates -
           swapnetbsd.o - has changed format.  You need to rebuild config
           (done automatically by build.sh) and then you need to rerun
           config on all kernel configuration files before rebuilding those
           kernels.

         If you build with MKX11=no, you should remove /etc/rc.d/xdm and          If you build with MKX11=no, you should remove /etc/rc.d/xdm and

   20081122:
           On i386, various kernel options(4) in GENERIC including
           file systems have been disabled and moved into kernel modules.
           Before trying a new GENERIC kernel, you have to prepare the
           following files as well as a new GENERIC kernel:
   
           - build and install kernel modules from src/sys/modules
   
           - install the latest bootloader, which will load a module
             for the file system from which the kernel is loaded automatically
   
           If you have to load your kernel from a file system which is not of
           the same type as the root file system, you have to load the necessary
           file system module manually on the boot prompt or in the boot.cfg file.
