      Thanks for pointing me there. The suggested workaround steps worked for me.

      pkg update && pkg upgrade -y

        Confirm seems to have completed a valid update cycle this time.
        I didn't test the webconfig.

        went from 2.4.4p3 to 0229.1500 successfully with the pkg update && pkg upgrade -y and a manual reboot.

            Also seeing this in current 2.4.5 and 2.5 snapshots. I was also able to recover by running pkg upgrade manually.

            We are looking into this.

              Hit this as well. Recourse was to manually install again and recover from xml backup. (Did that before seeing this)

                See https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/10303

                The better fix, for those who hit it already, is to run pkg install pfSense-upgrade

                It's been addressed in the repo, so if you didn't hit it yet, you shouldn't hit it now when upgrading.

                    When you install a new program like that, you have to type rehash or exit and re-enter the shell.

                        This thread is not for problems like that. It's for the specific issue of pfSense-upgrade getting removed.

                        Start a new thread.

                            See above, that is not the recommended procedure.

                            Locking this, it's been solved already.
