Description
Just to refresh your memory, after recently installing 0.7.0, I found that I needed to run sudo pkg upgrade, due to the qt5 changes. But typically, there are other surprises with upgrades.
## build notify fails to start. (resolved)
this was easy to fix:
```
sudo pkg install py39-dateutil
sudo pkg install py39-pytz
```
## errors during upgrade (resolved)
I got a lot of errors during pkg upgrade, saying that it couldn't find files in /usr/local/include/...
I reinstalled the os, and this time I installed the developer.img before running the upgrade, and the error messages did not appear.
## acpi glitch (open)
I use an external monitor, so one of the first things I do is set hw.acpi.lid_switch_state: NONE. This prevented my laptop from sleeping when I close the lid, so I could use System->restart and leave the lid alone. But now when I select restart on the system menu I have to open the lid and hit the power button to complete the restart. I had previously seen this issue in GhostBSD, and it started in helloSystem after the pkg upgrade, so I see this as a FreeBSD issue.
## GNUstep gui not working (open)
GNUstep was installed by the upgrade. For me, this is good, I install it anyway.
However, when I openapp SystemPreferences (or any other gui app) it crashes with the error
```
Uncaught exception NSGenericException, reason: Glyph generation with no font.
```
Freshports shows that GNUstep is not currently maintained, but it works without this error in GhostBSD. I'm working on a gap analysis to see what is different.
