You have converted your system to pkgbase and want to switch back to
updating from source.

If you have pkg 2.5.0 or newer:

    pkg unregister -fg FreeBSD-\*

otherwise:

    pkg shell "delete from packages where origin like 'base/%';"

Remember to run `make delete-old` after `make installworld` to remove
files that were installed by pkgbase but are excluded from your build.
