SQUIDGAURD PACKAGE INSTALLATION ISSUE

Symptoms:

After upgrading Pfsense from 2.1.5 to 2.2 I have got no SquidGaurd installed and when I tried to install it I get the following error on Pfsense

Reasons: as it indicates in the error above the reason why the package is not installed is due to not being digitally signed which might be something related to the new version.

Resolution:

In order to resolve this issue and successfully install SquidGaurd you will have to connect to your Pfsense from SSH (SSH Must be enabled and firewall rule must be configured) and do the following in order to install it by ignoring the Digital signature check.
