To build your own pkgbase, you need a system with pkg, if possible pkg 1.20.9
because it will soon take advantage of it.
run your usual make buildworld buildkernel
make sure REPRODUCIBLE_BUILD is activated.
make sure REPODIR is set if point to a directory where you want your packages to
be created.

if you want to sign them: export PKG_REPO_SIGNING_KEY="/a/path/to/a/rsa/key"

$ make update-package

that's all.

As for poudriere, there are some WIP support, but it still needs a couple of
packages.
