Poudriere quick tips

poudriere using system source on the same box

Creating

poudriere jail -c -v stable/15 -a amd64 -j 15amd64 -b -m src=/usr/src

Updating

poudriere jail -u -v stable/15 -a amd64 -j 15amd64 -b -m src=/usr/src

What all that means is -u to update, -v stable/15 is the git branch for the FreeBSD version, -a amd64 is the architecture in the jail, -j 15amd64 is the jail name, and lastly -b -m src=/usr/src build is the source provided with the -m src=path option.

Above that the -c is used to create the jail and all that poudriere needs for its use

Investigating why this doesn't work now

Use the same port configurations in poudriere as builds outside of it

ln -s /var/db/ports /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/options

Watch the output during any particular pkg build

My simple script, p-kegtrack:

#!/bin/sh

tail -f `ls /usr/local/poudriere/data/logs/bulk/14amd64-default/latest/logs/$1*.log`

In the above, 14amd64 is the jailname, default is the setname.  Using this would be p-kegtrack llvm13-13.0.1_7 or simply p-kegtrack which would be much more general and would show all changed log files in the /usr/local/poudriere/data/logs/bulk/14amd64-default/latest/logs directory.
