  Building from source, sure. But look how many dependencies are required, and some of them, like OpenSSL are problematic. The port, while also building from sources, is slightly different, doesnt require that much stuff to build/run, but also is giving you a way to build a binary package, so you wont have to compile it on every machine, and it will work with both old and new pkg toolset.
