With slow hardware
Timeouts occurred whilst pkg
extracted three packages:
subversion
libreoffice
git-gui
Uncertain whether this type of failure is negligible (the word error did not appear), I chose to repeat the upgrade for all three:
nomad@NomadBSD:~% sudo pkg upgrade -f subversion libreoffice git-gui

You may need to manually remove /usr/local/etc/git/gitweb.conf if it is no longer needed.

- a timeout occurred with only one of the three.
When a failure such as this occurs, can I treat it as negligible?
This drive is ludicrously slow. The only one that was available to me when I last installed NomadBSD (I might find one that’s faster, but not immediately) …
