Hmm, looks like the upgrade never completed then maybe?

I would re-install clean and restore the config if you can. It's hard to say what state that system is in. 2.5.2 should have icu-69. Did you try force upgrading the package like I showed above?

If someone still has one in this state, show the output of the following commands:

pkg version -vL=
pkg info -q
pkg check -s |& egrep -v '(Checking all|local/man|share/doc|\.dtd$|\.sample2*$|\.m4$)'

That last command may still show some other expecting items depending on packages you have installed.

I ran into this on a machine that is running the Unifi wifi controller. Reinstalling the Unifi controller pulled in the newer version of ICU. The Unifi installer for pfSense, while fantastically useful, is a bit of a dirty hack, and it has caused me grief on upgrades before.

It wouldn't surprise me if others in similar situations had similar causes (meaning packages from alternate repositories). If a package from some other source clobbered the "correct" version of icu/intl/whatever then it could be left in a broken state on upgrade.

Not much we can do about that, though, since that's all up to the end user to manage.

Still need more information from others before we can say for sure what might have led to that situation.

@jimp
I also have the unifi controller installed from that source. I don't think I upgraded it after the pfsense upgrade, I guess it got clobbered before the upgrade then?

stephenw10 · Aug 3, 2021, 12:53 PM

It at least sees those updates available. I would probably re-install to be sure you have a clean install but you could try a force re-install for all packages.

Had the issue when upgrading from 2.5.x to 2.6.0…

Came to success after enabling « admin » account to enable root privileges over ssh and be able to unlock « icu-68.2,1 » and update it to « icu-70.1_1,1 » :

pkg unlock icu
pkg delete -f icu
pkg install -yf icu

Trying to « simply » update the « icu » package wasn't working…

mcarson75 · Aug 22, 2022, 9:52 PM

@lange-ludo Thanks, I had the same issue upgrading to 2.6.0 and this fixed it for me.
