--- Comment #5 from Jason W. Bacon <jwb@freebsd.org> ---
Note to posterity:
Cloning the vcpkg repo and running ./bootstrap as an ordinary user seems to
work fine.
This package manager is a bit funky in that it depends on the native package
manager for some tools, such as pkg-config, make, etc.
But I've used it to install some big items like dcmtk on FreeBSD 14 without a
problem. Still would rather install them via FreeBSD ports, but this works as
a stop-gap.
