The /rescue is just one of the 'non protected' (non vital) packages called FreeBSD-rescue: # pkg info -l FreeBSD-rescue | (head; echo; tail) FreeBSD-rescue-14.1p6: /rescue/[ /rescue/bectl /rescue/bsdlabel /rescue/bunzip2 /rescue/bzcat...

One thing really scares me - a thing that I did not knew before - and its written in this comment: - https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/issues/2485#issuecomment-3133396711 To quote: So with PKGBASE the pkg delete -af command will WIPE almost all FreeBSD Base System including /rescue tools - so...

Good point - bug submitted: - https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/issues/2485

I would prefer XFCE or MATE instead of KDE - but that is me. There was even recent pools what FreeBSD users want - and yes - by general they want XFCE over KDE ... and a WM over any DE: - https://reddit.com/r/freebsd_desktop/comments/1m7mnpv/xfce_and_kde_retain_lead_among_freebsd_desktop/...

Thanks. If you boot 15-CURRENT installer - it even asks you now if you want 'classic' install or PKGBASE install. As for the pkgbasify(8) tool - right now it needs to be fetched directly from its GitHub page. ... and PKGBASE is not limited to 15.x - you can also convert FreeBSD 14.x systems...

You assume that with switch to PKGBASE You will lose the distinction between FreeBSD Base System and third party packages - and it will be like with yum(8) on RHEL or like with apt(8) in Ubuntu ... IT WILL NOT. Its just the Base System instead being 'just a bunch of files' - they will be...

There is also sysutils/loaders-update that can assist You with that step: - https://freshports.org/sysutils/loaders-update

SirDice Thank you for all the things I already tried and NONE of them work ... and yes - I use poudriere-devel package. I did not changed ANY options for LLVM/RUST/GCC/... I use -b latest and they are still built.

This is so fucked up - being forced to build HUGE things like LLVM or RUST with zero need (or sometimes resources) to do that ... Poudriere should finally allow such build - like: use whatever the fuck rust in the packages is available and do not waste time building it .

I enjoy ZFS since 2008 on FreeBSD - and all my data except cloud backups are kept on ZFS pools. All of them are GELI encrypted. I sync between my primary storage space and 'backup locations' with rsync(1) over ssh(1) or locally. I also got some cloud storage and it offers S3 interface - so I...
