Why do you dislike ports? They are very handy. You go in there, type 'make install clean' and that's it, each port knows its dependencies, so it will do the work. Just wait for installation to complete. It is better than installing packages manually one by one. I trust ports 100%.

What problems you have mfaridi? Distfiles that cannot be fetched ? Or compilation problems? Try to be more specific.

The packages are also an alternative.
