updating to acme 1.0 breaks system beyond repair: need to restore from backup

Hi all,
Is that something known?
Trying to update the ACME to 1.0 from 0.9_1 and it completely breaks the system beyond repair instantly and system stops booting as well.

@MarvinFS I did not have acme installed on my 2.8 VM, but I just installed it.. And had no issues

Installed packages to be REMOVED: bind-tools: 9.20.6 pfSense: 2.8.0.1500029 protobuf: 28.3,1 protobuf-c: 1.4.1_7I can't believe it would be a good thing to remove pfSense: 2.8.0.1500029
I thought I read somewhere about fix for removal of packages.. Maybe it was in the 2.8.1 release notes?
edit: well I didn't see it there - maybe it was redmine, I do recall reading somewhere there was issue with other packages being removed on install or update, etc. I will have to look around in the redmine

-
@MarvinFS on which pfSense version you tried this?
Since 2.8.0 is removed it must be 2.8.0 stable installed before... -
I don't know if that's my specific system, but it was cleanly installed not long ago after release of 2.8.0. and nothing fancy there.. so I'm confused what to do
-
I can't replicate that here, either. My system has the same versions of those packages installed and ACME goes on fine without wanting to remove them.
Sometimes we have seen issues like that happen if there were conflicting packages somehow, or third party repos enabled (like FreeBSD).
What's odd is that it doesn't say why it wants to remove them, just that they are going to be removed.
-
@MarvinFS same issue here?
-
Thank you for your support, people - really appreciate!
Failed to figure out what was that - probably some broken deps- I've had zenarmor manually installed and crowdsec.
I actually had that in the system - removed
rm /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/Zenarmor.conf
rm /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf
rm /usr/local/etc/pkg.confbut that didn't change anything I ended up fresh installing 2.7.2 from ISO, then upgrading to 2.8 and then restoring config (can't use netinstall as new installer doesn't want to connect to my pppoe during setup for unknown reason - so I can't use it, but it works just perfectly fine in GUI)
Now the issue is resolved and I've installed acme just fine... can't tell what was that - I've been using pfsense maybe 10+ years.

installed or upgraded?
2.7.2 was installed first from iso then upgraded to 2.8 then config restored - that resolved the issue.

no details - unfortunately installer doesn't provide any logs or troubleshooting info, except "unable to contact netgate servers" during install. Despite same PPPoE username and password specified in the initial prompt as used during normal operations.
