            Thank you for the ace instructions. I'm glad I waited to upgrade, as I didn't trust myself to be able to work out the kmod hiccup, but these were perfect. Just finished upgrading 15.0R-p10 to 15.1R and everything just works. Boot up is perceptibly faster, which is a nice cherry on top of the smooth upgrade. Edit: Now that the upgrade is complete, I'm going to bectl my way to trying a pkgbasify conversion. I was going to wait until 16.0R, but have half a mind of pulling the trigger early seeing as how these problems seemed non-existent on pkgbase and it's in our future anyway.

                          @grahamperrin It is unfortunate (for the general user population) that the transition from freebsd-update to pkg didn't turn this complexity into a wrapper before the transition, so they could ship simultaneously.
