I was just trying to get the software to build, or should I say configure. Ptxdist (www.ptxdist.org) has a difficult time finding things: may be buggy.
Can FreeBSD ports be updated on a system whose last update was in late July 2017 (11.1-STABLE)?
I was able to build FreeBSD 12.0-STABLE and HEAD more recently (May 2019), but the installation was unstable and unable to connect to the internet. But I still get efibootmgr.
