Well, I'd be guessing ... never bothered to buy
a set. Ought to, to support the project, I guess....
What's on 'em? Is it a list kinda like this?
foo-1.1.tar.gz
bar-2.5.4.tar.bz2

Then it's source for ports, as someone

and see if it makes life easier when building
in /usr/ports/path/to/whatever....
