Helvet font on pdflatex under FreeBSD?

Helvet font on pdflatex under FreeBSD?

This template is not producing anything on FreeBSD, but ok on Linux. How would it be possible to fix this on FreeBSD? It must work but it seems that TeXLive with PDFLATEX is buggy.
Can it be possible to have a code that produce helvet as well on FreeBSD?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Code:
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[scaled]{helvet}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\renewcommand\familydefault{\sfdefault}
\begin{document}

hello

\end{document}

Maybe you should provide some output to see the actual error. It works perfectly on my system (and of course I also checked the resulting pdf):

I have run it on FreeBSD v.12 and v.13, installed with texlive.

pdflatex to compile the code.

I need to find the infos in order to let see logs....
 
I installed it this way...


Code:
            npkg( "  texlive-base  " );
            npkg( "  texlive-texmf texlive-tlmgr " );
            npkg( "  tex-formats tex-basic-engines   ");
            printf( "  Completed. \n");
