      Hi,

      i wanted to update my pfsense, but got the message in the dashboad:"unable to check for updates". So i run a pkg update -f and pkg upgrade -f in the shell console.

      There i get the message "libssl.so.8 not found, required by pkg".

      How can i fix this?

      regards
      Michael
