So what I did in the end was adding
/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf with the following content:
FreeBSD: {
url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/latest",
priority: 40
}
My own repositories have priorities higher than 40. And by
changing "quarterly" to "latest" I ensure that the versions are
the same. `pkg upgrade` works fine now.
