Recomendation

Due to some bug with BASH, it is recommended that all users update via the command-line using the following steps:

Updating software using "pkg upgrade" alone will corrupt xorg and might corrupt GDM too. The solution is to use update the software that you want to update with "pkg upgrade the-software-to-update" , you can see the list of update by doing "pkg upgrade -n", "pkg install" automatically update software dependency when installint new software. Be sure to not upgrade xorg-server, xorg-drivers, and any xf86 with pkg use "portupgrade" instead

Mate 1.8 is available, users can update via the command-line using the following steps:
