Looks right.  Sadly, /experimental is broken at the moment - we accidentally
published a newer version of pkg(1) that depends on the new python in there
... but you can't install that python version before you upgrade your
pkg(1).  If you stick around #oi-dev, you should know more or less as soon
as we fix it.
