Something with the fact that you have two additional repos configured. I would try to disable mimugmail and sunnyvalley, retry the update, then re-enable.

If you are using only AGH from Michael's community repo he's got a dedicated one with only that package.

FreeBSD pkg does not play well with multiple repositories and different package versions/dependencies. Then neither does apt, so 🤷�♂️
