Don't know if this matters, never tried it that way - this is FreeBSD, not
Linux. FreeBSD is not some kind of Linux.
With that said, the ports tree usually lives under /usr/ports. No idea why
it would show up under /opt, except as some carry over Linuxism. You
probably need to wipe the Linuxism and start over as a FreeBSD user.
