Re: comment 12

Probably the opposite. 

As far as I can tell: pkgbase systems are never bugged, because pkg(8) is
bootstrapped.

Comment 11 may be the best indicator, I was probably too terse. 

More explicit steps to reproduce, with the fetch command:

1. install, and have an Internet connection
2. make final changes when exiting FreeBSD Installer
3. freebsd-update fetch

Alternatively: 

1. install
2. restart the OS ("Reboot") after exiting FreeBSD Installer
3. login as root
4. have an Internet connection
5. freebsd-update fetch

Either way, nothing happens. 

With the showconfig command, which shows nothing, an Internet connection is not
required :-)
