Can one have multiple packagesite statements in pkg.conf? I see the repositories don't have the latest versions, so portupgrade or portmaster would be needed to upgrade to the latest versions from ports? If so, can one mix and match pkg and portupgrade or portmaster or is that asking for trouble? i.e. use pkg to install packages and portupgrade or portmaster to upgrade packages.
