Seems fine. FreshPorts nowadays provides package availability table.

https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/latest/All/anki-2.1.48_3.pkg

Run "pkg check -d" or beware of dragons. pkg(8) always tries to fix
inconsistencies, so it may try to remove existing packages or install
unrelated stuff because something was forcefully removed/reinstalled
some time ago. For example, mixing ports and packages can easily lead
to such a situation.

Better use the following workflow:

1. Open https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/?all=1&type=package
2. Type desired major version + architecture in Search field e.g., 130amd64
3. Look at Status column for stopped:done
4. Look at Build column then click on poudriere icon (smoking powder keg)
5. In poudriere page type desired package name in *every* Search field
6. PROFIT: anki is green (built) on amd64 and yellow (ignored) on i386
