If building from ports is an issue for you, you can always use the command pkg_add to remotely fetch the binary for any software in no time.

pkg_add -r enlightenment

Please read manpage of pkg_add (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?pkg_add) for more information.

also make sure that thats the enlightenment you want. the enlightenment package is dr17. the e16 package is enlightenment dr16.

I think his problem is net speed....
install ftp/axel, then in file /etc/make.conf
FETCH_CMD=axel
FETCH_BEFORE_ARGS= -n 2 -a
DISABLE_SIZE=yes

This will let you fetch files in multiple sessions.... should be faster.
