That error indicates a flavour that is not supported. For example a port
specifying USES=python:3.9 means py39 is the only supported flavor so
building with py310 would fail. USES=python:3.8-3.10 would build for
py39 and py310 but fail for py311

So it isn't an option you can set globally, you only use it to build one
flavour of the one port at a time, although you can set it in env so
that it carries through to install deps that require and support the
same flavour. Useful when first creating a port, sometimes for new
versions, after that you use poudriere to test build all available
flavours.

Instead of building flavours, you can use pkg to install all flavours
that are available in the pkg repo.

pkg search numpy

pkg install py38-numpy py39-numpy

Works for any port using flavours, the value given just has to be valid
for the port you are building. lite is valid for llvm-devel, canna is
valid for emacs.

You can get a list of valid flavours for a port -

make -C /usr/ports/devel/llvm-devel -V FLAVORS

No - FLAVOR is a single value option, you only build one at a time.

you can build multiple flavours in a loop -

for F in py38 py39 py310
do
make FLAVOR=$F install
done

Which means you can write a script that gets the valid flavours and
builds all flavours for a given port.
