This is for people maintaining their ports themselves and who wish to be able to manually update the GUI without overwriting anything else.
WARNING: That will only work from 16.1.7 as you need an updated makefile in /usr/core
Get the source code
# pkg install git gettext-tools
# cd /usr
# rm -rf src ports
# git clone https://github.com/opnsense/ports
# git clone https://github.com/opnsense/core
Updating
Update all ports
# cd /usr/ports
# git checkout 16.1.8
Use the latest tagged release instead of 16.1.8.
Then update all your ports the way you usually do it. Per example with portmaster it would be
# portmaster -a
Install the updated OPNsense GUI.
# cd /usr/core
# git checkout 16.1.8
# make package
# pkg add -f opnsense-16.1.8.txz
Update base and kernel
# opensense-update -bkr 16.1.8
Reboot

Neat, thanks for posting. :)

Small correction: installation should be "pkg add -f 16.1.1/All/opnsense-16.1.1.txz"

Updated the OP since it's now much simpler for people who don't need to create images.
