With all the furore over log4J and JNDI decided it was time to take the plunge and force the update thru. Although I wasn’t running Log4J there are probably a heap of software out there that will need to be bumped to the latest and greatest, so it seemed sensible to opt for Release 14, given its now on the point 4 update so all the major issues should be ironed out.
Server is mid-update as I type and is going smoothly,
Biggest issue was getting all the ports up to date before I started as a couple of Python related ports where being stubborn, looking for a packaging update to >20, but Postmaster could not seem to find the required dependency. Turns out installing or updating py-packaging made the necessary fix and now all the ports are building nicely I can attempt the OS update as everything will need to be rebuilt again from ports.
