pkg add realtek-re-kmod-197.00.pkg problem

[gjaltemba]

I want to install realtek-re-kmod-197.00.pkg but it conflicts with a pre-installed realtek-re-kmod-196.04.txz. From what I can find the install of 196.04 is a boot module, loader.conf mods and licenses that I can undo manually.

How to resolve conflict between previous install of realtek-re-kmod-196.04.txz and pkg add realtek-re-kmod-197.00.pkg?

fetch -v https://pkg.opnsense.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/snapshots/latest/All/realtek-re-kmod-196.04.txz
pkg install -f -y realtek-re-kmod-196.04.txz

/boot/loader.conf.local

if_re_load="YES"
if_re_name="/boot/modules/if_re.ko"

kldstat

4    1 0xffffffff84094000   11d288 if_re.ko

pkg add output

pkg add https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/latest/All/realtek-re-kmod-197.00.pkg

pkg install -f -y realtek-re-kmod-196.04.txz

I would begin whith:

pkg delete realtek-re-kmod-196.04.txz

then:

fetch -v https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/latest/All/realtek-re-kmod-197.00.pkg

pkg install -f -y realtek-re-kmod-197.00.pkg

the /boot/loader.conf.local can stay as it is.

Hope it helps.
