I do use F39 with pkgsrc in unprivileged mode on my work laptop. I have
a few uncommitted fixes here and there (mostly PLIST fixes and stuff to
make Xorg from pkgsrc work). I do have PREFER_PKGSRC=yes and both
ncurses and db4 from pkgsrc installed with no local workarounds in
those packages.

One addition I have in mk.conf that could be relevant is:

TOOLS_PLATFORM.gmake=/tnn/pkg/bin/gmake
TOOLS_PLATFORM.awk=/tnn/pkg/bin/nawk
