I'm not sure if this would be considered a poudriere usage s. a pkg
usage issue for where to submit.

My poudriere jail updates are not cleaning out prior:

/usr/local/poudriere/jails/*/var/cache/pkg/FreeBSD-*

files after updates. For example my "official-aarch64" poudriere jail
now shows over 1600 files:

# ls -dC1
/usr/local/poudriere/jails/official-aarch64/var/cache/pkg/FreeBSD-* | wc -l
     1682

and spans a history of 6 snapshots:

# ls -dC1t \
/usr/local/poudriere/jails/official-aarch64/var/cache/pkg/FreeBSD-*~* \
| sed -e 's@^.*\(/FreeBSD-.*\)-15\.snap.*~.*$@\1@' \
| sort \
| uniq -c \
| sort -rn \
| head
    6 /FreeBSD-utilities-lib32
    6 /FreeBSD-utilities
    6 /FreeBSD-toolchain
    6 /FreeBSD-src-sys
    6 /FreeBSD-runtime-lib32
    6 /FreeBSD-runtime
    6 /FreeBSD-kernel-man
    6 /FreeBSD-geom
    6 /FreeBSD-clibs-dev
    6 /FreeBSD-bsnmp
I miss most email reports. I logged this over at https://github.com/freebsd/poudriere/issues/1343. 

This issue is purely Poudriere. I'll get a `pkg clean` into there.


Thank you!

Bryan
