No issues with your script. Just some kudos on a job well done. First time freebsd user and your script helped immensely, saved a lot of time and effort to give freebsd a try. I first used this to install KDE5 on a desktop, complete in about an hour or so. Second install was used to install kodi to a second drive, that will be used to view movies and tv, no issues at all with your script, however, kodi failed to start, lots of missing dependencies, filed a bug on that. On the kodi install, first run thru, I chose 1.. No desktop software, thinking I would be able to select multimedia/kodi, no luck, so on second run, I selected 15. Custom, that enabled me to select kodi and install, after installing the missing files, up pops kodi. In reading over the script, I see no mention or description of the category "Other", maybe a blurb about its capabilities? Thanks for taking the time to create a very helpful and straight forward script, that does what its meant to do.

Greatly appreciate the positive feedback and suggestions. I just updated the Quick Start tab at http://acadix.biz/desktop-installer.php and the miserably outdated man page. I will also mention kodi in the docs or maybe even support it explicitly in a future version. Was not even aware of it until you mentioned it.
