On a VM running DragonFlyBSD 5.9-SYNTH (DFLYVERSION=500900), I just
did a package update like this:
# pkg-static update
# pkg-static upgrade
and got this output:

You may need to manually remove /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf if it is no
longer needed.
pkg-static: Failed to execute lua script: [string "args = {}..."]:11:

pkg-static: lua script failed

/usr/local/sbin/pkg
/usr/local/sbin/pkg-static
# pkg search pkg
Shared object "libprivate_ssl.so.48" not found, required by "pkg"
# pkg-static search pkg
No active remote repositories configured.
Has anyone seen this before, and is there an easy fixup?
I fixed the missing *.so.* file problem with this temporary workaround
that I've used on multiple O/Ses in the past when similar
missing-library problems surfaced during upgrades.
# ln -s libprivate_ssl.so.47 /lib/libprivate_ssl.so.48
# ln -s libprivate_crypto.so.45 /lib/libprivate_crypto.so.46
I also tried renaming /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf to
/usr/local/etc/pkg.conf.old, but that does not change the "No active
..." output, so I put the file back under its old name.
I can easily revert to last night's snapshot of the VM, but it would
be good for all DragonFlyBSD users to know how to recover from a
broken package system (which is why I have habitually used pkg-static,
instead of pkg, in the BSD family of operating systems);
