Yours, > >> -mi Hi, While we all do mistakes I'm asking because it's broken and it's likely not going to be fixed any time soon. In reality it adds noise (which we already have enough of) on lists, Poudriere builds (because by default we build all ports) takes more time producing nothing, more time for people to review error logs and so on. It boils down to my time > your time which usually don't translate well in team efforts. Instead of doing the same thing again use Poudriere as you're by know well aware that it "should" be used and you have been "warned". I would also say that you'd be better off in general asking for suggestions by creating a PR and or use Phab(ricator) due to quality reasons (to mention it again, team effort). Best regards, Daniel
