Never had such results. Is it a wrong update script?
 
Did you install the debug libraries? Do you actually use them? If not, ignore it.
 
Look in /usr/lib/debug/. But if you don't know they're installed or not you're not using them in any case. You would know if you actually used them.
 
I had the same error...and like you, "/usr/lib/debug/usr/sbin" doesn't exist on my system. Unfortunately you can't just ignore this (like I did yesterday) because it will continue to pop up in the "security updates" email each day. I wonder if maybe the FreeBSD folks will fix this in the next few days .

In the mean time, what worked for me is to simply create the directory -- sudo mkdir -p /usr/lib/debug/usr/sbin/

... then you can run freebsd-update fetch / freebsd-update install and it will succeed without issue.
 
I updated to 11.3-RELEASE-p11 yesterday and noticed no such errors (though it's possible I missed them). However, today I got the following message by e-mail:
Code:

/usr/lib/debug/usr/sbin/local-unbound-control.debug
/usr/lib/debug/usr/sbin/local-unbound.debug

I'm assuming this is part of the same issue, hence reporting it here.
 
I have the same problem with all FreeBSD servers.

I do not want to make any additional directories.
Anybody have any solutions or we should wait of fixing it in freebsd-update?
 
I bit the bullet and upgraded to 11.4. 11.3 is in the 3-month changeover period before it goes EOL at the end of September, so I don't expect fixing this annoying message will be a priority for developers for an obsolescent version which is being phased out.

And what happened next? Did update script put something there?

what's this?
