Hi,

I just had the same experience as the poster in this thread.
https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/61343/

To prevent foot shooting for other people would it be wise to change the  
default pkg branch used in /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf on armv6 (RPI2 in my  
case)?

# diff -u /tmp/FreeBSD.conf /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf
--- /tmp/FreeBSD.conf   2017-10-29 10:55:13.140285000 +0100
+++ /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf       2017-10-29 10:49:09.354789000 +0100

I just installed the image from  
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/arm/armv6/ISO-IMAGES/11.1/FreeBSD-11.1-STABLE-arm-armv6-RPI2-20171012-r324546.img.xz.
