I think tar is default in freebsd 12. There is gtar-1.32

*** 64-bit OS ***
*** that being said, this should be a FreeBSD 7, 8, 9, 11, or 12 system. ***

when
root@atlas:~ # whereis tar
tar: /usr/bin/tar /usr/share/man/man1/tar.1.gz

It's already there by default. So it seems we don't need it.
 
pkg install gcc gmake perl5 wget bison flex cyrus-sasl cmake python autoconf libtool libarchive iconv bind911 mailx webalizer gettext-runtime udns sudo psmisc tar openssl krb5

Please update

NOTE: without tar you get
pkg install gcc gmake perl5 wget bison flex cyrus-sasl cmake python autoconf libtool libarchive iconv bind911 mailx webalizer gettext-runtime udns sudo psmisc openssl krb5
