This file documents some of the problems you may encounter when upgrading
your ports. We try our best to minimize these disruptions, but sometimes
they are unavoidable.
You should get into the habit of checking this file for changes each time
you update your ports collection, before attempting any port upgrades.
20250325:
AFFECTS: users of TeX*
AUTHOR: bofh@FreeBSD.org
TeX system has been updated to 2025 from 2024. Normal pkg upgrade or
portmaster -a should handle all the upgrade properly. In case not please
create a ticket or send a mail to tex@FreeBSD.org
Previously users have reported to delete texlive-texmf prior to
starting update, or pkg-static will indicate there is a conflict
during the upgrade of texlive-base :
# pkg remove texlive-texmf
20250321:
AFFECTS: users of mail/oama
AUTHOR: nivit@FreeBSD.org
Starting from version 0.15, when the GPG backend is used the encrypted
credentials are stored in the $XDG_STATE_HOME/oama directory.
If the XDG_STATE_HOME environment variable is not set then it defaults to
$HOME/.local/state.
That is a breaking change! If you use the GPG backend you need to manually
move your credential ~/.local/var/oama/*.oama files into the new directory.
20250316:
AFFECTS: users of graphics/gdk-pixbuf2
AUTHOR: vishwin@FreeBSD.org
Loaders for ANI, BMP, ICNS, ICO, PNM, QTIF, TGA, XBM and XPM have
been moved to a separate graphics/gdk-pixbuf-extra port. Install
the aforementioned port if artefacts in those formats no longer
load or otherwise cause errors, and report them so that
USE_GNOME=gdkpixbufextra can be declared. Most should only need
USE_GNOME=gdkpixbufextra:run, but for those also needing these
loaders for build, leave out the :run.
20250315:
AFFECTS: users of sysutils/snmp_exporter
AUTHOR: lexi@hemlock.eden.le-fay.org
BREAKING CHANGE: The new version of sysutils/snmp_exporter (0.28.0)
introduces several breaking changes. If you don't want to migrate yet,
switch to the new port sysutils/snmp_exporter20 which contains the previous
version (0.20.0).
1. The exporter uses a new configuration file format for SNMP authentication,
and configurations from the previous version will no longer work. This
applies regardless of whether you use the configuration generator or write
the configuration by hand.
For migration instructions, see:
https://github.com/prometheus/snmp_exporter/blob/main/auth-split-migration.md
2. Breaking changes were made affecting the 'synology', 'ddwrt' and
'kemp_loadmaster' modules. For migration instructions, see:
https://github.com/prometheus/snmp_exporter/releases/tag/v0.27.0
3. The sysUpTime metric has been removed from the if_mib module. For
migration instructions, see:
https://github.com/prometheus/snmp_exporter/releases/tag/v0.28.0
4. (FreeBSD-specific) The port no longer patches the generator to hardcode
${PREFIX}/etc in the paths used by snmp_exporter_generator. If you were
relying on this behaviour, you should update your scripts to specify the full
pathname.
20250312:
AFFECTS: users of net/samba4{19,20}
AUTHOR: michaelo@FreeBSD.org
The MANDOC option has been renamed to MANPAGES to match the option
name with other ports and the description from Mk/bsd.options.desc.mk.
20250311:
AFFECTS: users of databases/mongodb80
AUTHOR: ronald@FreeBSD.org
Added flavor mongodb80-armv80a.
See item 20250217 for the rationale.
20250310:
AFFECTS: users of www/wget2
AUTHOR: michaelo@FreeBSD.org
The default NGHTTP2 option has been renamed to HTTP2 to match the option
name in ftp/curl and the description from Mk/bsd.options.desc.mk.
20250219:
AFFECTS: users of comms/ser2net
AUTHOR: rodrigo@FreeBSD.org
ser2net 4.6.4 doesn't support 3.5.1 configuration who has to be
converted over to use new YAML syntax.
Please see the examples on ser2net.yaml sample configuration and
read the ser2net.yaml manpage on how to configure the new version.
Additional links and resources have been provided on the pkg-message.
20250217:
AFFECTS: users of databases/mongodb70
AUTHOR: ronald@FreeBSD.org
MongoDB on non-LSE ARM CPUs like Raspberry Pi 4 works but is
unsupported upstream and can give corruption on high concurrency.
Please read https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-71772 for details.
Port mongodb70 is flavored to create two packages:
mongodb70 and mongodb70-armv80a
Please install mongodb70-armv80a on RPI4 or similar ARM systems as pkg
mongodb70 will fail on runtime with unsupported instruction error.
20250208:
AFFECTS: users of net-mgmt/netbox
AUTHOR: kai@FreeBSD.org
1. Please make sure that the PostgreSQL server for the NetBox instance is
running version 13 or higher. This is because PostgreSQL 12 reached
its End of Life (EOL) on November 14, 2024 and was also removed from
the ports tree at the beginning of 2025.
2. Please also check the pkg-message and the changelogs for further info.
20250205:
AFFECTS: users of www/gitlab
AUTHOR: mfechner@FreeBSD.org
Make sure you compare your /usr/local/www/gitlab/config/puma.rb with
/usr/local/www/gitlab/config/puma.rb.sample and make sure you have the:
require "logger"
line in your puma.rb.
This fixes an error:
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/3.2/gems/activesupport-7.0.8.7/lib/active_support/logger_thread_safe_level.rb:12:in `<module:LoggerThreadSafeLevel>': uninitialized constant ActiveSupport::LoggerThreadSafeLevel::Logger (NameError)
Logger::Severity.constants.each do |severity|
20250203:
AFFECTS: users of x11/kde5 and x11/kde6
AUTHOR: arrowd@FreeBSD.org
All KDE ports were fully switched to Qt6/KF6. Plasma 5 ports were removed.
KDE Applications were updated to 24.12.
If you installed KDE via kde5 or kde6 packages, the upgrade path is
# pkg remove -f kde[56] && pkg install kde
If you installed KDE via the plasma5-plasma metapackage, the upgrade path
# pkg remove -f plasma5-plasma && pkg install plasma6-plasma
Running "pkg autoremove" after the upgrade would clean unused dependencies.
For the uncommon cases of building on the host with synth, portmaster, etc.
the idea stays roughly the same - replace every plasma5 package with its
plasma6 counterpart.
20250131:
AFFECTS: users of security/easy-rsa
AUTHOR: mandree@FreeBSD.org
easy-rsa (easyrsa) versions between 3.0.5 and 3.1.7 inclusively
may have chosen the wrong, a weak, cipher (des-ede3-cbc) when
encrypting the CA private keys with the build-ca command, when
running on a system where openssl was OpenSSL 3.
Such CA private keys should be re-encrypted with a stronger cipher
in order to protect them better, after upgrading EasyRSA to 3.2.1.
To that end, the easyrsa set-pass ca command can be used.
Details: https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/CVE-2024-13454
20250125:
AFFECTS: users of www/apache24
AUTHOR: brnrd@FreeBSD.org
Apache 2.4.63 removed the (experimental, non-default) mod_tls module due
to rustls-ffi API instability and it was moved to a standalone module.
Users of the TLS option can use the new www/mod_tls port as a replacement.

AFFECTS: users of www/kiwix-tools and devel/libkiwix
AUTHOR: olce@FreeBSD.org
Upstream released a new version (14.0.0) of kiwix-tools' dependency libkiwix
that the latest release of kiwix-tools (unchanged at 3.7.0) does not
support, and the devel/libkiwix port was updated to it by mistake.
In order to fix the situation without reverting devel/libkiwix to 13.1.0 and
bumping its PORTEPOCH, the new port devel/libkiwix13 has been created and
www/kiwix-tools has been updated to depend on it rather than devel/libkiwix.
This is expected to be temporary.
As devel/libkiwix13 and devel/libkiwix conflict with each other, which
apparently can confuse pkg (which proposes to delete www/kiwix-tools), users
having www/kiwix-tools installed are advised to upgrade it first separately,
e.g., by running:
# pkg upgrade www/kiwix-tools

AFFECTS: users of net/xrdp-devel
AUTHOR: meta@FreeBSD.org
The port has been updated to the latest development snapshot.
The directory for the config files has also changed from
PREFIX/etc/xrdp to PREFIX/etc/xrdp-devel to prevent incompatible config
files for net/xrdp and net/xrdp-devel from getting mixed up.
When updating net/xrdp-devel from old versions, move the config files to
the new directory.

AFFECTS: users of net/xrdp
AUTHOR: meta@FreeBSD.org
xrdp supports H.264 encoding in graphics remoting since v0.10.2.
It reduces the amount of data transmitted over the network and provides
a much smoother and more responsive experience compared to previous
versions. When updating from older v0.10.x versions to v0.10.2, make
sure to merge the new xrdp.ini with the old one because xrdp.ini has
some new configuration parameters for H.264. See 20240704 if updating
from v0.9.x.
Furthermore, xrdp v0.10.2 supports running the xrdp daemon as an
unprivileged user. See the xrdp.ini(5) man page for configuring xrdp to
run as an unprivileged user. You can also check if xrdp is properly
configured to run as an unprivileged user using the script located at:

AUTHOR: dch@FreeBSD.org
Users who installed or upgraded to CouchDB 3.3.3 *after* 2024-09-30, and
who are also running 14.1-RELEASE or newer, will hit a nasty corruption bug,
causing all CPUs to lock up, possibly crashing, and generating a lot of
errors in log files.
This bug is caused by corrupt docs after decompression, due to a clash
between improved compiler optimisations in clang18, and a bug in snappy
itself. Given the above symptoms, all affected users will have noticed.
Upgrade to 3.4.2 in ports, to resolve this issue.

AFFECTS: users of databases/prometheus-postgres-exporter
AUTHOR: lexi@hemlock.eden.le-fay.org
BREAKING CHANGE: In postgres_exporter 0.16.0 and later, the log message format
has changed. From the upstream release notes:
The logging system has been replaced with log/slog from the stdlib. This
change is being made across the prometheus ecosystem. The logging output has
changed, but the messages and levels remain the same. The ts label for the
timestamp has been replaced with time, the accuracy is less, and the timezone
is not forced to UTC. The caller field has been replaced by the source field,
which now includes the full path to the source file. The level field now
exposes the log level in capital letters.
20241110
AFFECTS: users of devel/apr1 and www/apache24
AUTHOR: brnrd@FreeBSD.org
The default BerkeleyDB provider for apr-util was changed from BerkeleyDB
5 (deprecated) to BerkeleyDB 1 from base libc. The change of version
results in a non-compatible database format.
After upgrading, you must rebuild all BerkeleyDB databases used by
apr-util (example: Apache databases created with `httxt2dbm -F db`
20241109:
AFFECTS: all users of i386
AUTHOR: asomers@FreeBSD.org
On i386 the lang/rust port has been updated to require SSE2 by default. Not
only does the compiler itself require SSE2, but it unconditionally generates
code that requires it, too. Over 500 ports include Rust code (www/firefox,
security/py-cryptography, etc). Official binary packages of all of those
ports will no longer work on Pentium III and older hardware. PIII users must
now build their own lang/rust packages, clearing the SSE2 option, and rebuild
any dependent ports.
20241104:
AFFECTS: users of mail/fetchmail
AUTHOR: chalpin@cs.wisc.edu
OPIE and RPA have been made optional because both have significant security
problems. OPIE support was not provided by the port on 14.x until the update
to 6.5.0, when it was briefly re-activated. Because of its security flaws, it
has now been disabled by default on both 13.x and 14.x.
RPA is currently enabled by default, but this will change in a future update.
20241019:
AFFECTS: users of security/libressl
AUTHOR: brnrd@FreeBSD.org
The port has been updated to the latest stable version 4.0 of LibreSSL.
The shared library versions of the libraries have been bumped.
After upgrading, manually update all packages that depend on any of the
libraries provided by LibreSSL (libssl, libcrypto and libtls) since the
versions of these libraries have changed. Normally, you can obtain the
list of dependent software by running the following command:
# pkg info -r libressl
Then you should rebuild all ports depending on libressl to avoid dangling
shared library dependencies.

AFFECTS: devel/binutils
AUTHOR: cy@FreeBSD.org
Historically devel/binutils would implicitly use devel/elfutils when
it discovers it previously installed. This resulted in it depending on,
though not explicitly if previously found, elfutils when built manually.
This behavior has now changed. binutils will now disable any
auto-dependency on elfutils. Users who build binutils manually and wish
to have it depend on elfutls must now explicitly set the option when
building binutils.
There is no change to packages built by poudriere.
20240824:

AUTHOR: netchild@FreeBSD.org
The start script of acme-dns has been renamed to acme_dns for improved

".../etc/rc.d/acme-dns" to ".../etc/rc.d/acme_dns"
20240816:
AFFECTS: users of databases/redis
AUTHOR: yasu@FreeBSD.org
The databases/redis port has been updated to 7.4. Users wanting to
stay on 7.2 can replace databases/redis with databases/redis72 with
one of the following commands.
If you use pkg with binary packages:
# pkg set -o databases/redis:databases/redis72
# pkg upgrade
If you use portmaster:
# portmaster -o databases/redis72 databases/redis
If you use portupgrade:
# portupgrade -o databases/redis72 databases/redis
Keep in mind license term has changed with Redis 7.4. Now it is
distributed under dual license of Redis Source Available License v2
(RSALv2) and Server Side Public License v1 (SSPLv1). If you don't
want to accept either of them, then Valkey (databases/valkey) may be
alternative for you. It is fork of Redis 7.2 and distributed under
3-clause BSD license that is same as Redis 7.2 and before.

pkg upgrade
With portmaster or portupgrade (replace the command accordingly):
portmaster -o archivers/py-borgbackup12 archivers/py-borgbackup
20240723:
AFFECTS: users of databases/postgresql* and other software using PostgreSQL to run
AUTHOR: kbowling@FreeBSD.org
The default version of PostgreSQL has been switched from 15 to 16.
The upgrade procedure can use up twice the space the databases
currently needs. If you have a big amount of stored data take a
closer look at the manpage of pg_upgrade for avoidance and/or
speedup of the upgrade.
The upgrade instructions consider a basic usage and do not match
complex scenarios like replication, sharding, or similar.
Upgrade instructions:
First stop your PostgreSQL, create PostgreSQL-binaries and backup your data.
If you have another Version of PostgreSQL installed, for example 15, your
files are named according to this.
# service postgresql stop
# pkg create postgresql15-server postgresql15-contrib
# mkdir /tmp/pg-upgrade
# tar xf postgresql15-server-15.7.pkg -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
# tar xf postgresql15-contrib-15.7.pkg -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
# pkg delete -f databases/postgresql15-server databases/postgresql15-contrib databases/postgresql15-client
Now update PostgreSQL:
pkg user:
# pkg install databases/postgresql16-server databases/postgresql16-contrib
# pkg upgrade
Portmaster users:
# portmaster databases/postgresql16-server databases/postgresql16-contrib
# portmaster -a
Portupgrade users:
# portinstall databases/postgresql16-server databases/postgresql16-contrib
# portupgrade -a
After installing the new PostgreSQL version you need to convert
all your databases to new version:
# su -l postgres -c "/usr/local/bin/initdb --encoding=utf-8 --lc-collate=C -D /var/db/postgres/data16 -U postgres"
# su -l postgres -c "pg_upgrade -b /tmp/pg-upgrade/usr/local/bin/ -d /var/db/postgres/data15/ -B /usr/local/bin/ -D /var/db/postgres/data16/ -U postgres "
Now the migration is finished. You can start PostgreSQL again with:
# service postgresql start
ATTENTION:
1) If you use non-default initdb options, you have to adjust the initdb-command accordingly

AUTHOR: meta@FreeBSD.org
xrdp has been updated to the releases of the latest stable branch v0.10.
This version significantly improves performance improvement especially if the
client is Windows 11. There are to things to be careful about when updating.
1) Make sure to update both net/xrdp and x11-drivers/xorgxrdp ports
simultaneously.
2) Config files require manual migration (follow the steps below).
Review and backup changes you made to xrdp.ini and sesman.ini before updating
xrdp. The following example only mentions xrdp.ini however make sure to do the
same review, backup and migration for sesman.ini as well.
Before updating xrdp, review and backup your changes.
# cd /usr/local/etc/xrdp
# diff -u xrdp.ini.sample xrdp.ini > xrdp.ini.diff
After updating xrdp, migrate your changes to new configuration files.
xrdp.ini.sample is replaced with new version at this point. See diff and
manually apply changes.
# cp xrdp.ini.sample xrdp.ini
# vi xrdp.ini

AFFECTS: net-mgmt/net-snmp
AUTHOR: markj@FreeBSD.org
The snmpd and snmptrapd daemons now drop privileges by default when started

configuration in /usr/local/share/snmp is readable by the "snmpd" user. If
you have defined extension scripts in snmpd.conf, make sure that they can be
executed by an unprivileged user. To revert to the old behavior of always
running as root, set snmpd_sugid="NO" or snmptrapd_sugid="NO" in /etc/rc.conf.
See the snmpd rc script for a hint on how to debug any permission problems
that might arise as a result of this change.

AUTHOR: ronald@FreeBSD.org
The default MongoDB version dependency has been switched from 5.0 to 6.0.
Although MongoDB 5.0 -> MongoDB 6.0 datafiles in-place upgrade seem to
work, users are strongly recommended to take full backup of unifi
database prior to upgrade and start with clean installation afterwards.
For an in-place upgrade it is important that the MongoDB
'featureCompatibilityVersion' is set to 5.0.
See: https://www.mongodb.com/docs/v6.0/release-notes/6.0-upgrade-standalone/#feature-compatibility-version
Run these commands in mongodb50 before upgrading (e.g. while unifi is running):
$ mongo --port 27117

> exit
See updating entry 20230310 for a backup/restore upgrade.
20240604:
AFFECTS: net-mgmt/net-snmp
AUTHOR: markj@FreeBSD.org
The net-snmp port's newsyslog(8) configuration has been updated such
that the snmpd log file will be owned by the snmpd user following log
rotation. This is done to make it easier to run snmpd as the snmpd
user rather than as root, using the snmpd_sugid rc.conf option.
For now snmpd still runs as root by default. This is expected to change
in the future.
20240529:
AFFECTS: users of TeX*
AUTHOR: bofh@FreeBSD.org
TeX system has been updated to 2024 from 2023. Normal pkg upgrade or

AFFECTS: users of python
AUTHOR: rm@FreeBSD.org
The default version of python3 and python was switched to 3.11.
For ports users wanting to keep version 3.9 as default,
add DEFAULT_VERSIONS+= python=3.9 python3=3.9 to make.conf
Following procedures may ease the upgrade:
For users of pre-build packages:
# sh
# for i in $(pkg query -g %n 'py39-*'); do pkg set -yn ${i}:py311-${i#py39-}; done
# pkg upgrade
For portmaster users:
# sh
# portmaster -o lang/python311 python39
# REINSTALL="$(pkg info -oq '*py39*')"
# pkg delete -f "*py39*"
# portmaster $REINSTALL
# REBUILD=$(pkg query -g "%n:%dn" '*' | grep py3 | grep -v py311 | cut -d : -f 1 | sort -u)
# portmaster $REBUILD
# REBUILD2=$(pkg list | grep python-39 | xargs pkg which | awk '{print $6}' | sort -u)
# portmaster $REBUILD2
Final steps (for pre-built packages & portmaster):
If no longer required, Python 3.9 can be removed via
"pkg remove python39" and the directory /usr/local/lib/python3.9 can
then be deleted afterwards, if not empty.

AUTHOR: cy@FreeBSD.org
As of 52032b3d50c0 net/rdist6 will install its binary named rdist instead
of rdist6. Base FreeBSD no longer has its own rdist binary. Therefore
there is no need to rename the rdist6 binary to rdist6 to avoid confusion.
The historical and default name of the rdist binary is "rdist".

AFFECTS: users of lang/php81
AUTHOR: bofh@FreeBSD.org
The default version of PHP has been switched from 8.1 to 8.2.
If you use binary packages you should make a list of php packages
before running 'pkg upgrade':
# pkg info \*php81\* > ~/installed-php-ports-list
After the upgrade, check with such list if all your php extensions
are still installed, and reinstall them if needed.
If you use mod_php81 you need to deinstall it and install mod_php82.
20231104:
AFFECTS: users of security/libressl
AUTHOR: brnrd@FreeBSD.org
The port has been updated to the latest stable version 3.8 of LibreSSL.
The shared library versions of the libraries have been bumped.
After upgrading, manually update all packages that depend on any of the
libraries provided by LibreSSL (libssl, libcrypto and libtls) since the
versions of these libraries have changed. Normally, you can obtain the
list of dependent software by running the following command:
# pkg info -r libressl
Then you should rebuild all ports depending on libressl to avoid dangling
shared library dependencies.
