Help, please:
https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-current/2025-September/008892.html
I want to use uclcmd with a file that is initially empty:
/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf
pkgbase
FreeBSD: pkgbase: major upgrades
― a rough guide, for alpha testing on AMD64.
From <https://redd.it/1nlo8lp>:
❮ An obvious response to the roughness: it's more complicated than legacy freebsd-update(8) (for FreeBSD 14.3-RELEASE). True; this is for alpha testing.
Please read the preamble before anything else. If you have any question, please don't hesitate to ask. ❯

After maybe a decade of "pkgbase", I doubt that the official new phrase "freebsd-base" will catch on and become more popular.
It's five syllables, plus a hyphen, which breaks tagging in (at least) Mastodon.
freebsd-base: major upgrades: pkg-static: no trusted certificates

Attention to meta packages alone is insufficient to prevent removal of the kernel.
In the attached screenshots, there was no force.
