I believe your FreeBSD version is now unsupported. Here is a link: https://www.freebsd.org/releases/ I don't know if that is the explanation for your other issues but the release itself is definitely end of life.

morteng You have to upgrade and re-install all your packages. You can read instructions in The Handbook. Also, there is a nice little synopsis here: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/59158/#post-338899 (Yes, I've been in your situation. lol)

morteng You have to upgrade and re-install all your packages.

This is required if upgrading to the next major version (11.x) but is not if upgrading from 10.2 to 10.3.

In this case I would recommend reinstalling all packages though. This is due to some minor kernel changes that happened in 10.3. Not strictly necessary but it won't hurt.

I got the same issue in a fresh 10.2 installation:

# pkg install ifstat
...

Finally pkg-static install ifstat worked for me.

FreeBSD 10.2 is End-of-Life: https://www.freebsd.org/security/unsupported.html

Thanks for the reminder!
Yeah, I know 10.2 is EOL, but I have to use it temporarily to debug some issue.
