Is "pkg -vv" output also identical? ABI is the usual culprit but other
variables can also have an impact.

For example, https://www.freshports.org/databases/mysql80-server#packages
doesn't list a package for a number of ABIs (mostly Tier2 architectures).

Broken build on the package cluster e.g.,

http://www.ipv6proxy.net/go.php?u=http://beefy13.nyi.freebsd.org/data/130i386-quarterly/8831094823b1/logs/errors/mysql80-server-8.0.28_2.log

Finding these requires navigating https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/?all=1&type=package
or https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-pkg-fallout/ Sometimes what fails
isn't the package itself but one of its dependencies. Port maintainers are
usually mailed by pkg-fallout@ for Tier1 architectures (aarch64, amd64, i386).
