It is better to use poudriere (installed from ports) where you can create the list of ports you want to build (why would you want to build everything?), then you run poudrier bulk and on target system disable official FreeBSD repository and add yours. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-poudriere-build-system-to-create-packages-for-your-freebsd-servers https://github.com/freebsd/poudriere I am using poudriere for a long time to build all packages needed on our servers. It is very helpful tool. Miroslav Lachman
