opnsense-bootstrap: stops with `already unlocked` package even using a very recent FreeBSD build

[fdcastel]

I'm having the same problem from #93 in a very recent build of FreeBSD (from 2024-10-28)

Frankly, I'm unsure why the issue #93 was closed.

• Is there a workaround available?
• What is the recommended method for installing OPNsense on a fresh FreeBSD installation today?

I'm working to automate a VM setup for my homelab Proxmox VE.

I’m using image from bsd-cloud-image.org because, unlike the official FreeBSD images, they include cloud-init (which allows me to automate the VM initialization).

...aaaand of course, after I posted the last message, I found this:

https://github.com/opnsense/update/issues/93#issuecomment-2242714677

Running

# pkg delete -fya

fixed the problem (packages are downloading now).

I need more coffee -- or maybe just more sleep.
