Parse Error running make packages

[Pete Wright]

Hello,
Is the preferred method for building a package base repository still to 
run "make packages" after running buildworld and buildkernel?  I am 
testing this locally and am running into this error:

===> Creating FreeBSD-acct-dbg-13.0.s20200524150532

It looks like it's tripping up on this line in acct-dbg.ucl:
deps: {
     FreeBSD-%PKGDEPS%: {
         origin: "base",
         version: "13.0.s20200524150532"
     }
}


specifically the %PKGDEPS%.  I wonder if I'm missing a step in this process.
