      I was just trying to install Netbird on my Netgate 4200 running 25.07.1. The "pkg" command appears to be missing a library:

      [25.07.1-RELEASE][root@gateway.wn1x.org]/root: pkg help
      ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libutil.so.10" not found, required by "pkg"

      Any suggestions on how to correct this?

        I solved this by running:

        pkg-static clean -ay; pkg-static install -fy pkg pfSense-repo pfSense-upgrade

          That's expected if it has pulled in a newer version of pkg. If you were previously using the 25.07-dev snapshots that might have happened when 25.11-dev became available.

          It shouldn't cause a problem because pkg-static should always work.

            @stephenw10 Yes, I had pkg 2.2.2 installed, probably from the RC releases.
