Thanx for info. I'd like to give building everything on 10.1-RELEASE-<nopatches> a try, but I don't see the ability of poudriere to specify patclevel when using ftp method - it always fetches the latest one. Is this by design, to discourage building on potentially vulnerable versions, or just non-implemented functionality? Regards, -- Before enlightenment - chop wood, draw water.
