Chromium disappeared from pkg after upgrade

Upgraded system from an (unused since a while) 12.2 to 12.3 - ran successfully, including userland upgrade via freebsd-update fetch/install .....
However when I try to look for chromium under programs, it doesn't show up - have a strong feeling it was present when I used the system last.

Also, when I try to look for chromium under pkg it doesn't show up!
Code: 
sudo pkg install chromium
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...
FreeBSD repository is up to date.
All repositories are up to date.
pkg: No packages available to install matching 'chromium' have been found in the repositories
[ ~]$ sudo pkg search chromium
chromium-bsu-0.9.16.1_2        Arcade-style, top-scrolling space shooter

Where did Chromium disppear? ? How do I get it back?

PS : conf settings are below
Code: 
less /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf 
# $FreeBSD: releng/12.3/usr.sbin/pkg/FreeBSD.conf.quarterly 346780 2019-04-27 04:00:50Z cperciva $
#
# To disable this repository, instead of modifying or removing this file,
# create a /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf file:
#
#   mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos
#   echo "FreeBSD: { enabled: no }" > /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf
#

FreeBSD: {
  url: "pkg+[URL]http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/$[/URL]{ABI}/quarterly",
  mirror_type: "srv",
  signature_type: "fingerprints",
  fingerprints: "/usr/share/keys/pkg",
  enabled: yes
}

So it won't work without installing 12.4 ? I just upgraded to 12.3 - was hoping there would be an easier way

12.4 is out, so 12.3 will be EOL in less than 3 months. Upgrade all the way, minor upgrades don't hurt.

But there's more to it, you won't have a binary package available before 12.3 EOL. That's unfortunate here, as chromium now seems to require a libc++ version that just isn't available in 12.3.

Ok I upgraded to 12.4 but still pkg search not showing Chromium ?
 
As I said, there won't be a package until 12.3 is EOL:

Unfortunately, this means for now: upgrade to 12.4 and build yourself. The reason is that the official builders will stick with 12.3 until its EOL in 3 months.

But now, you could at least build the port yourself.

This is a very unusual problem btw, the ABI doesn't change for minor releases, so normally, it doesn't matter which version is used for building packages. But here it does, as written in the IGNORE message.

Seems like the build will require 2 GB memory and 21 GB disk space! Along with not sure how many more hours ?
 
Ok chromium won't build because of py39-Babel conflict with py37-Babel......damn this is such a pain

The default python3 version has been 3.9 for a pretty long time now, it seems you first have to correctly update your system...

Of course, you can also wait 3 months, then the official builders will use 12.4 to build FreeBSD-12 packages and chromium will therefore appear again.

Yes, this was a backup system not used for a year. I did however update/upgrade it from 12.2 to 12.3 to now 12.4 . What do you mean by "correctly update your system"?
 
Then there should be no py37- packages left. Also try pkg autoremove and, to find whether you have orphans, pkg version -l '?'.
 
My builder typically spends something between 2 and 20 hours on chromium, I guess depending on how many ccache hits it has. It's certainly one of the most massive port builds. That's on some older 4-core Xeon with HT used, so poudriere builds up to 8 packages in parallel.

Yea I killed the process - might be easier to just upgrade to 13.x or 14 and use Chrome

14 is in development, don't use it if you don't absolutely must.

Sure, you can upgrade to 13.1. Or just give the build some more time (the chromium build uses ninja, you will see a percentage in the logs). Or wait until official builders for 12 run 12.4....
