When virtualbox packages are released they will install on a running

However since pkg image-update creates a new BE I get a bonus reboot.
Would it be possible for packages that can be installed in the live
system to install there. By all means create a new BE just in case but
just install in the live BE thus saving a reboot?
This has been discussed, but be aware that you don't have to
image-update to update specific packages on your system.
If you want to update a specific package just do something like:
pfexec pkg install pkg1 pkg2 pkg3 ...
That will "install" the newest version that can be installed for your
current system of the indicated packages.
