Screenshot: pkg-update(8) not working on FreeBSD 12.4-RELEASE

CC: maintainers tagattie@ and mikael@ – please see the FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT
screenshot at comment 0:

* Chimeracord <https://github.com/RoboChimera/ChimeraCord/> using electron19
* Element (for Matrix) launched from GKrellM with the command below. 

electron21 https://app.element.io/ &

For reference only. Not flagging for feedback from either of you. Both
applications do work when I: 

* use /etc/fstab for tmpfs at /tmp
* do _not_ use tmpmfs.

For pkg update not working with tmpmfs, would you like me to open a
corresponding issue at <https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/issues>? 

I imagine not, because the problem is worked around on three different systems
by _not_ using tmpmfs.
