Interesting. I've just seen exactly the same thing when trying to update my CURRENT VM. It's the transition from FreeBSD:11:amd64 to FreeBSD:12:amd64 which seems to be the root cause. The old 'freebsd:12:x86:64' ABI style is something that pkg(8) moved away from many years ago. It appears in the package metadata as 'arch': # pkg info -RF FreeBSD-lib-12.0.s20160727061717.txz | head -10 name: "FreeBSD-lib" origin: "base" version: "12.0.s20160727061717" comment: "lib package" maintainer: "r...@freebsd.org" www: "https://www.FreeBSD.org"; abi: "FreeBSD:12:amd64" arch: "freebsd:12:x86:64" <<<----*** prefix: "/" flatsize: 106186 which I believe is more significant for certain ARM and MIPS architectures: i386 and amd64 only have one architecture variant apiece. Still, curious about how to get over this major version number bump. Cheers, Matthew
