Bug ID: 288665
Summary: bsdinstall pkgbase: .pkgsave file handling
Product: Base System
Version: CURRENT
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Some People
Priority: ---
Component: bin

Created attachment 262707
--> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=262707&action=edit
Screenshot: booted from
FreeBSD-15.0-CURRENT-amd64-20250801-0a3792d5c576-279199-disc1.iso
Steps:
1. perform a traditional installation, name the pool 'blah'
2. boot, login as root, enter the password, shutdown -p now
3. boot the previously used FreeBSD installer
4. shell
5. bsdconfig networking
6. get an Internet connection
7. mkdir /tmp/altroot
8. zpool import -R /tmp/altroot blah
9. zfs mount blah/ROOT/default
10. env BSDINSTALL_CHROOT=/tmp/altroot bsdinstall pkgbase
11. complete the installation
12. shutdown -r now
13. login as root
Half-expected (ideal):
14. a prompt for the root user password
Actual result:
14. login without authentication
15. et cetera.
Thoughts
--------
I expect files such as /etc/master.passwd.pkgsave to exist – without being
merged – in scenarios such as the one above.
Other users may have different expectations following a reinstallation of the
OS.
