How to update to the latest Tailscale version?

veddy254

@TommyMoo While it may work with the FreeBSD 14 version, I would not recommend running it long-term as any future updates to PfSense and the underlying FreeBSD 15 version running underneath it can and likely will at some point break. I would still recommend downgrading to 1.84.2_1 until the FreeBSD 15 version gets updated to 1.86.2. Not to mention that none of the changes between 1.84.2_1 and 1.86.2 really would affect a PfSense Node and would only apply to other clients.

@veddy254 O; will do so.. Thanks for your advice and expertise, will downgrade

@veddy254 LOL, now I have a problem... ->

pkg add https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.84.2_1.pkg
Fetching tailscale-1.84.2_1.pkg: 100% 11 MiB 11.9MB/s 00:01
Installing tailscale-1.84.2_1...
Newer FreeBSD version for package tailscale:
To ignore this error set IGNORE_OSVERSION=yes

package: 1500054
running kernel: 1500029
Ignore the mismatch and continue? [y/N]: y
the most recent version of tailscale-1.86.2 is already installed

Will maybe, have to deinstall, and install again.... my fault, or you have a tip for me ?

@TommyMoo you'll have to uninstall 1.86.2, then install 1.84.2_1, yes. you could also try adding the -f flag aka pkg add -f https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.84.2_1.pkg

TommyMoo

@veddy254 Thank you, the -f flag fixed it!!

$ tailscale version
1.84.2
go version: go1.24.5

Will in future, pay more attention, for no mismatch happens again! Tks

The bugaboo that was affecting the FreeBSD 15 pkg repos has cleared, and the new builds seem to be finished. So, 1.86.4 is now landed in FreeBSD:15:amd64/latest ABI:

pkg add -f https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.86.4.pkg
