Actually this is not related to a pkg bug at all

2 this happened here:
1/ your root is readonly and the ca_root_nss package is trying to create a file
on it (the is the change in _1).

Concerning the unlinkat issue is due to somehow the files being absent on the
system before the upgrade.

pkg 1.5.2 would have shown the same thing
