I would be nice to also add this patch:
https://github.com/lwhsu/qemu/commit/ac699f79b4d86d8195d76c3befada65ade449cc0.patch
To prevent problems in the future.

The error was due to the pkg version got "fixed" when building image,
and was too old when VM got provisioned, then it cannot be not
compatible with the package repository. Ref:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-cloud/2020-April/000234.html

Best,
