      I get best results using MC Light rather than full MC.

      For pfSense 2.5 with FreeBSD 12 check last version of every pkg at http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/latest/All
      and install in the following order:
      1.) libsigsegv
      2.) gawk
      3.) mc-light

      Until today the commands are:
      pkg add http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/latest/All/libsigsegv-2.12.txz
      pkg add http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/latest/All/gawk-5.0.0.txz
      pkg add http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/latest/All/mc-light-4.1.40.p9_11.txz

      After all, you can find MC installed at /usr/local/bin

      For pfSense 2.4.x (FreeBSD 11) check pkg versions at http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:11:amd64/latest/All

        You might run rehash after loading those so the command become available directly.
