@whitequark 


this causes the base system to be updated from 15.1 to 15.1p3


This is a pkgbase system then?  This includes a kernel update, so rebooting is the correct thing to do.

If you're using a pkgbase system and don't want to update the base system, you should add -r to specify only the built-from-ports repos.

Pkgbase is still marked as experimental, so if you're using it then please report issues upstream!

I have pkgbase freebsd systems and if the package manager forced a reboot I would have migrated them to netbsd immediately

completely unacceptable behavior
