I think that's how it should be. You wouldn't want to use base if you have
specifically built packages (and conversely you wouldn't build a package
if base has it and you are satisfied with it.)

Yes. openssh works fine. Thanks.

/usr/bin somehow didn't have it on another machine I have which mirrors
/usr/pkg from first machine where I do builds. That apart. I think if
/usr/pkg is first in the path it should work. That sounds logical to me.

Seems so. Anyway as you suggested openssh works. So I'll use that.
