--- Comment #13 from Sulev-Madis Silber <bugs-freebsd-org916@ketas.si.pri.ee> ---
this doesn't seem to be actual fbsd ports error. but what is it? is it
something that fbsd patch introduced to any tools those use, eg auto* maybe? or
is it upstream? or a stray issue running them in fbsd? but why did it
disappear? since i tried to get the error back by downgrading them. but
downgrade somehow fixed something. something in fs i guess. since env didn't
change. no config or tools did change. nothing changed. sadly i don't have full
fs snapshots but i do have pkg db dump before (fails) and after event (ok). if
this is stray issue, it's very weird one. maybe it's specific to portupgrade,
but how portmaster fails then? the error is also from gmake and it's within
upstream code apparently. oh i don't know. would anyone suggest anything? i
diffed the two pkg dumps but couldn't find anything. or i don't know what to
look. pkg db should perfectly reflect any file, lib and their relations, dep,
etc on disk. i clearly changed something and now i can't get it back. maybe pkg
bug even? i guess it won't show up with poudriere but what's even happening? i
mean it's not question whether anyone should still use portupgrade in 2025 but
why does this error happen. i don't like random bugs experienced by multiple
users. i think i should have better fbsd lab where i can actually play with
things like this, repeatedly, and find out the causes
