--- Comment #1 from Mark Millard <marklmi26-fbsd@yahoo.com> ---
What version of pkg?

v2.6.2 (quarterly port packages)
v2.7.5 (latest --a.k.a. default-- port packages)

Something else?

What version of the FreeBSD OS?

RELEASE: 14.3, 14.4, 15.0, 15.1
STABLE: 14, 15
main: 16

Why do you have a mix of 2 repositories that end up being referenced:

FreeBSD-ports
vs.
FreeBSD

?

The fact that you do not show the full text of the command(s) that
produced the output leaves anyone having to guess at things. For
example, did you list -rFreeBSD-ports and -r FreeBSD explicitly on
the command line?

A similar point goes for the files: /usr/local/etc/pkg/respos/*.conf
(and /etc/pkg/*.conf if you edited anything there).
