      So in short - it's OK to upgrade all packages ?

      Thx

      (Better to ask then be sorry :) )

        I updated all of mine that showed it - not all did. There were quite a few, I did not notice any issues. You can normally click the package version link in the package manager and it will take you where you can see what was changed. The few I clicked on only showed the copyright date change.

        The good thing that came out of it - atleast for me, was I was unaware of the issue with the total traffic package ;) which I have edited the php file and all looks good sofar, even though I did reset my data again :( heheh but that seems to have cleared up the hourly graph nicely..

        thanks @RonpfS for mentioning that ;)

          I disabled pfblockerNG to prevent DNS/IP blocking.
          I disabled Traffic Totals graphing.

          I updated all packages, everything went smooth.
          I applied the patch for Traffic Totals, enabled graphing, date was reset as expected.

                Wonder if removing packages before would make the process better ...

                  @johnpoz Probably because of the linked folder

                  ls -al /usr/local/www/bandwidthd
                  lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  28 Jan  8 16:39 /usr/local/www/bandwidthd -> /usr/local/bandwidthd/htdocs

                        I used the 'Reinstall all packages' button from Diag > Backup & Restore for this on the my edge box. No problems I noted.
