For some reason, my copy of pkg-1.1 was unable to do anything since
packages were updated to pkg-1.2 versions
I had to reinstall pkg from dports first:
cd /usr/dports/ports-mgmt
make clean
make deinstall
make install
pkg-1.2 disables all repos by default; you'll have to move some files
in /usr/local/etc/pkg to enable one of them again
