I don't use pkgbase (and don't plan to), but I think you need more than 
just this repository. Shouldn't it be FreeBSD-base and FreeBSD-kmods?
(because now there are also 2 for ports packages: FreeBSD and FreeBSD-kmods)
It seems like a nightmare to me to specify repositorys names every time 
one want to upgrade only ports, and another 2 repositories to upgrade 
only the base.
