Solved Messages from pkg-message

I have some messages from pkg-message and I don't know how to deal with them.

Code:
pkg-message for boost-libs-1.67.0_1
Always:
You have built the Boost library with thread support.

Don't forget to add -pthread to your linker options when
linking your code.

===>>> pkg-message for gcc6-6.4.0_6
Always:
To ensure binaries built with this toolchain find appropriate versions
of the necessary run-time libraries, you may want to link using

  -Wl,-rpath=/usr/local/lib/gcc6

For ports leveraging USE_GCC, USES=compiler, or USES=fortran this happens
transparently.

===>>> pkg-message for py27-boost-libs-1.67.0
Always:
You have built the Boost library with thread support.

Don't forget to add -pthread to your linker options when
linking your code.

You have built the Boost.Python library. You have to add the following
options when building your own code:

Compiler options:
   -I/usr/local/include/python2.7 -I/usr/local/include

Linker options:
   -L/usr/local/lib/python2.7 -L/usr/local/lib -lboost_python -lpython2.7

I don't use pkg and I'm installing software exclusively from ports so the mix packages/ports does not exist on my machine. Before every updates I'm reading /usr/ports/UPDATING and those messages aren't there. Since it's about pkg should I ignore those messages? Thank you!
 
These are messages the port maintainers think can be useful to users of the software. In this case the maintainer of the Boost library is telling you how to link these libraries in your own code. Unless you are a developer using Boost in your own programs I'd say you can safely ignore these messages.
