The current version is 1.7.8. Run

pkg update -f

to get the pkg junk back to reality.

pkg update -f > ERROR: Child process pid=7504 terminated abnormally: Segmentation fault

[doktornotor]

Well, if pkg segfaults for you, you'd better do a hardware check and fresh install.

(You can use pkg-static but that's obviously no solution here long term.)

it is virtualized in vmware, so no hardware error  :D

[doktornotor]

Uhm… stuff crashing in vmware does not mean there's no HW error on the hypervisor itself. Anyway, this has nothing to do with FreeRADIUS.

nothing crashed and no hw error:

should i try this:

as i unterstood, i have a problem with the pkg manager?!

[doktornotor]

Nothing crashed?! You package manager is segfaulting, in case you have not noticed.

pkg update -f > ERROR: Child process pid=7504 terminated abnormally: Segmentation fault

You won't be able to upgrade/install anything with a crashing package manager. With this being a VM, I'd export the config and do a reinstall, instead of trying to hack around an already broken install.
