main-armv7 crashed before it was at a stage that has public log files to =
look
at.

I report this mostly because the currently distributed main-packages for =
ports
that involve use of libmd.so.6 are broken because main now has/uses =
libmd.so.7
instead --so libmd.so.6 tends to be missing. Even when libmd.so.6 and
libmd.so.7 both exist, the pkg (non -static) command is broken from the
recursive dependencies ending up referencing both. (pkg-static works but =
pkg
does not.)

It might be that the crash is because of the libmd.so.6 to libmd.so.7 =
change
in main. But I've no access to logs to look at.

It would be good to avoid having another main-arm64 bulk -a happen =
before
main-armv7 has a chance to produce main-armv7 packages with libmd.so.7
references so that ports are again good for (modern) main-FreeBSD [so: =
15].

But it seems that, for main-arm* port-packages, either:

0) various distributed ports are incompatible with libmd.so.7 based
    main-FreeBSD (the current context for main-armv7)

vs.

1) various distributed ports will be incompatible with libmd.so.6
     based main-FreeBSD (so: older main/15 FreeBSD installations):
     the future contexts for main-armv7 and main-arm64 (and more).


FYI: The libmd.so.{6->7} change dates back to 2024-Sep-30 in FreeBSD's =
main.
But the __FreeBSD_version 150002{3->4} change did not happen until
2024-Oct-02.


main-powerpc-default's status for such:

Looks like FreeBSD:15:powerpc/latest/ was last updated on 2024-Mar-07
and so might not have the issue --by no longer having port-package
updates of any kind. (32-bit powerpc is not to be supported by
releng/15.0 as I understand: The only 32-bit platform will be armv7
as I understand.)
