ports! I've bulk built a number of packages over the last week, and I often run into the situation where building a package requires a dependency (that ends up either being built or found on a mirror), but when make tries to pkg_add the dependency, pkg_add fails saying it can't find the target package. In testing pkg_add out myself, I experience the same error when I run pkg_add with the full path of the package just created (either grabbed from a mirror or built locally), though all is fine if I use the package's basename (and not full path). pkg_add is also fine to use the full path to the package if the package was not the dependency make just attempted to pkg_add see the following example with xfe):
