4.�Open Issues

  • [2020-06-11] Source-based upgrades from FreeBSD�11.2 on the i386 architecture may fail to compile clang due to the amount of RAM consumed.

    Adding CFLAGS+=-O1 to /etc/make.conf or /etc/src.conf has been observed to work around the compile-time RAM exhaustion.

    See PR 246274 for additional details.

  • [2020-06-16] The FreeBSD�11.4 release notes erroneously state the KDE desktop environment has been updated to version 5.8.4.1.19.12.3. The correct version is 5.18.4.1.19.12.3.
