This particular bug was related to how we build our PBIs, using a LOCALBASE which was a sym-link to elsewhere. By switching LOCALBASE back to the full-directory path, it corrected the issue. I'm not sure if that's something you need to fix in the port, but it may be good to note for anybody else using a non-standard LOCALBASE. -- Kris Moore PC-BSD Software iXsystems
