Thanks.
This was my first freebsd install, and I used a combination of ports, sysinstall, and pkgng. Clearly the source of all my problems (freebsd related ;) ).

However I'd like to get pkgng working.
In my pkg.conf file, I tried a few different...

I originally removed it with pkg_delete -f because some sysinstall package wanted the non-threaded version which conflicted (can't remember the package - kde or X11 I think).
pkg: lstat(....): No such file or...
My first time installing FreeBSD. After a week of pouring over the forums, handbook, etc, and several attempts (taking incremental snapshots), I finally got an error free installation in a VirtualBox VM including KDE and NFS to the Ubuntu host (Linux Mint 13 actually) :e.
I still haven't quite...
