      Quarterly vs latest in URL path name

      Always check the Freshports TailScale page first.

      Maintainer has already started working on 1.82.5

        @elvisimprsntr Someone here said pfsense package must be removed first, update tailscale, install pfsense package again.
        No need for that then?

          I have never uninstalled the pfsense TailScale package before manually updating. The one person who did broke theirs. The solution was to reinstall the pfsense TailScale package, then manually update the freshports TailScale version.

              @ha100 said in How to update to the latest Tailscale version?:

              @FCS001FCS pkg add -f https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:14:amd64/quarterly/All/tailscale-1.82.0.pkg

              I used: pkg add -f https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:14:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.82.0.pkg from a prior post and it did not work for me; I manually changed 1.82.0 to 1.82.0_1 and it worked. Don't know what the issue was, but it OK for me now.

              Edit: saw additional posts and the command seems to be slightly changed for latest or quarterly, I did not notice that.

                @FCS001FCS To be clear: do we need to uninstall the tailscale package first on every tailscale update?

                I do not, I just run the PKG command and it updates TailScale. I restart TailScale via the GUI just for good measure, but not needed, I think.
