Hello Fernando, thank you for pointing me towards kports earlier. I
appreciate your help.

It is starting to seem that there is more interest in the GUI pkgng and
freebsd-update utilities at present. I do intend to pursue two out of three
of them on my time eventually; I'd like to use them all, and see others
benefit from them as well. GUI is my fort=E9.
