https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D234538 --- Comment #4 from Morgan Vandagriff <morgan@vandagriff.org> --- I discovered a workaround which may be of interest: the issue observed with freebsd-update is apparently related to behavior of the py27-google-compute-engine package installed by default on the FreeBSD GCE images. If one uninstalls the package prior to upgrading, all proceeds normally. I have a theory that the issue may proceed from py-google-compute-engine's tendency to overwrite certain files in /etc every few seconds whenever it is running. While I'm lacking an understanding of the internals of freebsd-upd= ate, it seems plausible that this could somehow give rise to the hangs I observe= d. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
