pkg verify – Validate installation of packages in the current image.
pkg fix – Fix package installation errors reported by the pkg verify command.
pkg revert – Revert files delivered by pkg packages to their as delivered condition.

Correct answer is D.

B would also work, but that would fix any corrupted file in the pkg, while pkg revert /usr/bin/p7zip, will only fix that specific file. And that’s what’s requested.

However, the correct syntax for D is:

pkg revert /usr/bin/p7zip

It requires the full pathname to the file.

Correct answer is B, there is a typo, but is definitely B.

D will be right but specifying the path of the file instead the package name:

root@sol11:# > /usr/bin/p7zip
root@sol11:# pkg revert p7zip

pkg revert: The following files are not packaged in this image:
