Problem is system does not complete boot process: interfaces do not have addresses, pf is not stated, any attempts of execute php lead to errors:

PHP ERROR: Type: 64, File: /etc/inc/config.inc, Line: 51, Message: require_once(): Failed opening required 'Net/IPv6.php' (include_path='.:/etc/inc:/usr/local/www:/usr/local/captiveportal:/usr/local/pkg:/usr/local/www/classes:/usr/local/www/classes/Form:/usr/local/share/pear')

I am not sure, but have small suspicious php errors like this might affect update to 2.4.4. Because we have got some tickets with the same error messages (e.g. #12741).

The issue affects only 2.4.3-p1. Versions 2.4.4 and 2.3.4-p1 are able to install pfblocker without trouble.
