Hi,
I just had the same experience as the poster in this thread.

To prevent foot shooting for other people would it be wise to change the
default pkg branch used in /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf on armv6 (RPI2 in my
case)?
# diff -u /tmp/FreeBSD.conf /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf
--- /tmp/FreeBSD.conf 2017-10-29 10:55:13.140285000 +0100

I just installed the image from
