This is a bug within EasyPBI, not PC-BSD.
Workaround:
Run "EasyPBI" (without quotes) from the command line (CLI) and try to build the PBI with the GUI just as before (it will fail). Exit EasyPBI and look at the output on the command line to locate the command being run to start the PBI build process (will be: gksu -a "pbi_makeport -c .....something...."). Run that command from the CLI to build your PBI. THIS ONLY NEEDS TO BE DONE ONCE. The EasyPBI GUI will work perfectly for any additional PBI's that need to be built at a later date.
