List, before 3.2.0 Poudriere defined PORT_DBDIR with only <jailname>-<setname>-options, which was apparently a bug. Now (in 3.2.0) it honors -p option in the options command and includes ports tree name (given to -p) in PORT_DBDIR. In other words, if -p is given, it will be included in PORT_DBDIR. If it's not, then nothing's changed. The result of that is that it will mkdir <jailname>-<treename>-<setname>-options, which has higher priority than <jailname>-<setname>-options, so if you have the options dir created from before, named only <jailname>-options (or <jailname>-<setname>-options), it will now be overriden by the new (correct) scheme. This is important in my case, because when I first ran poudriere options many lunar orbits ago, it created <jailname>-options, and <jailname>-<setname>-options, and it remained like that as I don't have more than one tree (but do have several jails and sets). So now it "broke" my set up (which I suppose should be said it fixed a bug and my setup was broken from before). The fix was simply to rename the old <jailname>-options dir I had to <jailname>-default-options (as "default" is my ports tree name), and likewise for each set I use. Sorry if this was mentioned before, though I found no public announcement of this change. Thought it was important enough to mention it, so here. -- Vlad K.
