Thank you for the quick reply!

Geez, pkg can be stubborn. Maybe better follow its suggestion.

# pkg-static install -f pkg

Indeed I did that first on the initial error and many times since. It, unfortunately gives the same error (see below).

If that for some reason doesn't work, it can also be re-bootstrapped, I think it goes like this:

# pkg-static remove pkg
# pkg bootstrap

pkg bootstrap doesn't want to work either.

root@ppt-fw:~ # pkg bootstrap

This has been the same error I've been getting when I tried pkg-static upgrade and pkg-static install -f pkg

I have changed mirrors so that is not the issue.

Thank you! Hadn't thought of that. Still a FreeBSD noob 🙄

Unfortunately, the upgrade still didn't fix the problem. Here is the output:

Any other thoughts? It is not a production system so I can simply backup the config and do a fresh install but that seems like cheating to me.

Thanks!

Hi folks,

I've just completed an upgrade from 16.7 to 17.1 and it seems pkg is broken. Here is the output I'm getting:

Shared object "libssl.so.7" not found, required by "pkg"

So I tried to force it to reinstall with pkg-static:
pkg-static install -f pkg

pkg-static: Warning: Major OS version upgrade detected.  Running "pkg-static install -f pkg" recommended

So far I've tried changing mirrors, doing an update with pkg-static but I'm still stuck. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
