It looks like you already have based on the ports-mgmt/pkg udpate. But, then I see your "pkg_install" error which leads me to believe you haven't fully migrated. Just take a quick peek athttp://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/pkgng-intro.html and maybe try it again. > > I have tried several times.

On the upside, getting feedback is great, so thanks for letting us know. Just as an additional heads up, Python 2.6 expired (EoL upstream) and was removed from the ports tree on Jan 1 2014. You'll want to upgrade all your Python bits to 2.7 If you need help or have questions, don't hesitate to jump on IRC, we're here to help on #freebsd-python (freenode) ./koobs
