    I'm missing something...

    On a basified 14.3-RELEASE-p6 system I end up seeing a pkg error relating
    to not being able to find a trusted key but the needed keys are there and readable. This is pointing at base_relase_0 (and maybe that's the problem?
    Do we start counting at 0 for the initial release?) using an ABI of FreeBSD:15:amd64

    The problem appears to be related to an issue evident on pkg.frrebsd.org.
    If you go to https://pkg.freebsd.org/, click on FreeBSD:15:amd64 and then click on base_release_0 you get an error message of "AccessDenied". Also a message about XML file does not appear to have style information. The same happens if you look under FreeBSD:15:aarch64. Again maybe that is because 15-RELEASE-p0 doesn't exist yet?

    I can move from 14.3-RELEASE-p6 to 15.0-STABLE just fine if I use url: "pkg+https://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/base_latest" but I'm not seeing how to get from 14.3-RELEASE-p6 to 15-RELEASE.

    Apologies if I'm missing something basic here.

    I expect there that the material at:

    https://www.freebsd.org/releases/15.0R/relnotes/#upgrade-rc

    is involved, even though starting from a pkgbase 14.* is not
    mentioned.

    I do not know if there might be somewhat more to it for
    starting from a pkgbase'd 14.* .
