It may be -STABLE but it apparently hasn't been updated in a while. You're
running FreeBSD version 1201522, which is some flavour of 12.1. As Warner
pointed out, FreeBSD 12.1 has reached EOL, and is no longer officially
supported by ports.
By way of comparison, here is a 12-STABLE system I updated yesterday:
gromit ~% uname -a
FreeBSD gromit.dlib.vt.edu 12.2-STABLE FreeBSD 12.2-STABLE
stable/12-n232755-dfb372f5d38c GENERIC amd64
gromit ~% uname -U
1202505
If you want to continue to use ports on that system I suggest you do a source
upgrade to at least 12.2-STABLE (or else install a 12.2-STABLE snapshot).
Cheers,
Paul.
