Ports will automatically do the right thing. Installing from source is
understandably not supported, but reading ports it shouldn't be too hard
either.
More to the point, select some packages you want to have installed, and
use either pkg_add or make install with the proper arguments/in the
proper directories. Both systems will automatically pull in all
dependencies.
