https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=296467 --- Comment #5 from Mark Millard <marklmi26-fbsd@yahoo.com> --- (In reply to wbe from comment #4) I understand your context little better now: I now understand that there was no prior conversion to pkgbase so some of my notes had no chance of being right. Sorry. I do not normally operate based on freebsd-upgrade use for any systems. In the original problem context, before any clean up, I would be curious to see the output of: # pkg which -g \*/libgcc_s.so.1 (If the system does not end up being listed, despite the /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 , that may mean that pkg is going to try installing/upgrading the other things it does list.) Of course, that may not be possible now because of prior cleanup activity. >From what you wrote, it sounds to me like you should mostly ignore my attempted notes and go your own way. I would suggest avoiding making pkg deal with orphaned files from any prior activities. I would also suggest making sure no orphaned files are left when you are done. Also watch out for ending up with *.pgknew and/or *.pkgsave files. (Less likely: .pkgtemp.* files.) I'll leave it at that for more generic suggestions. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are on the CC list for the bug.home | help
