I use source, rarely if ever use packages, (except pkg_delete
to remove old broken dependencies). No opinion which scrips are better.

In 10.0 FreeBSD `reaped the benefit` of a default new horrible
registry that smells like Microsoft with quasi binary local.sqlite
needing special tools.  (Yes I know there's an export function.)

For 2 decade we've poured scorn on Microsoft & its opaque easily
damaged hard to access registry, & lauded how with FreeBSD we can
examine & manipulate & repair our text based equivalent with any
number of personal choice text tools, & now FreeSBD is burdened by
this horrible Microsoft style registry.

Cheers,
Julian
