(4.1.3 vs. 4.2.1). The first thing any package tool should do is update itself. No, make that "must do" because other packages are only required to be updated with a contemporary version of pkg-get. The first batch of updates before updating itself are done with an old version, potentially too old, it need not be the previous version, it will be whatever is there and that can be very old. Using the update self first principle the initial package installer need only update itself and might not need advanced perl nor wget.
