I find working with the ports system easier, as an end user, than DEB-
and RPM-based systems that I've used.  I have never built DEB- or
RPM-based packages, and the one time I tried creating a port I failed
(though frankly I didn't try that hard -- it was just an experiment when
I was bored one evening), so I guess I'll have to take your word for it
when it comes to creating ports.
