Hi Derek,

you're missing the keys in /usr/share/keys/pkg, those have been added
to FreeBSD fairly recently. You have two options, either download the
keys manually and install them on your syste,, e.g. from
http://svnweb.FreeBSD.org/base/head/share/keys/pkg
or alternatively comment on the lines starting with "signature_type" and
"fingerprints" in usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf (in which case
pkg won't check the digital signature of packages when fetching them
from pkgsite).
