Not quite, in this case I was using pkg but tried to install one port as 
there aren't any meta packages yet, it looks like the pkg repo has been 
updated but it was a case of there only being 1.3.7 in the repo, ports 
wanted 1.3.8 but 1.3.8 was the latest at the bootstrap url

If that makes sense?
