Hello,

I have a general question, when installed iredmail on freebsd can I still use system to update packages with pkg upgrade? I tried that and it broke several functionalities of the server.
What is the recommended way of keeping the system updated?

Best regards,

B

The official binary packages don't have some compile options enabled, so you cannot use 'pkg upgrade' to upgrade them. Instead, you have to upgrade with ports tree.
