Best practice is *not* to modify /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf, but to create a
supplemental file /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf to override any
of the default settings.
So, for example, this in /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf will
switch to the 'latest' package set:
```
FreeBSD: { url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/latest" }
```
and this will disable the FreeBSD pkg repos entirely:
```
FreeBSD: { enabled: no }
```
(presumably with an additional .../pkg/repos/foo.conf file to enable a
custom local repository)
The best way to confirm exactly what the resultant pkg(8) configuration
comes out as is by:
pkg -vv
Cheers,
Matthew
