Possibly something you are upgrading has a new dependency on the Linux base package?

If you expand the "required for running" list here, is there anything you have installed that has been upgraded?

FreshPorts -- emulators/linux_base-rl9: Base set of packages needed in Linux mode (Rocky Linux 9.8)

This port contains packages from a near-minimal installation of Rocky Linux 9. These packages, in conjunction with the Linux kernel module, form the basis of the Linux compatibility environment. It is designed to provide a nice user experience by using the FreeBSD configuration for corresponding...

kldload linux64 (the 64 bit linux(4) kernel module needs to be loaded)

And emulators/linux_base-rl9 isn't part of pkgbase.

pkg upgrade -r FreeBSD

do you have some way to turn pkg base to freebsd-update ?

There is no supported transformation path from a packaged base install ( "pkgbase" ) to a distribution set based base install ( that is: that uses freebsd-update(8) to upgrade the base install). It has been mentioned by Colin Percival (the release engineer) that the current freebsd-update(8), a sh(8) script, may be transformed into a new version that performs the upgrade of base packages ( basically using pkg(8) under the hood).

On a packaged base 15.x-RELEASE base install, you can select a specific remote repository:

• pkg upgrade -r FreeBSD-base - upgrade base packages only
• pkg upgrade -r FreeBSD-ports - upgrade packages from the ports tree only - not kmods packages
• pkg upgrade -r FreeBSD-base - upgrade kmods packages from the ports tree only

P.S.

pkg upgrade -r FreeBSD

On the 15 branch there is no remote repository labelled FreeBSD

Open the file /usr/local/share/awesome/lib/awful/spawn.lua with root privileges (e.g., sudo nano /usr/share/awesome/lib/awful/spawn.lua).
Find the line that says local Gio = lgi.Gio.

Directly below it, add the following line:
local GioUnix = lgi.GioUnix

Find and replace all instances of Gio.UnixInputStream with GioUnix.InputStream.
They likely appear in two places where read_lines is called, looking like Gio.UnixInputStream.new(...).
Change them to GioUnix.InputStream.new(...) .
After making these changes, save the file and restart AwesomeWM
