New package repositories available for kernel modules.

Since 14.2-RELEASE we have been publishing a repository of packages built for
all supported arches.

With the upcoming 14.3-RELEASE we have extended the infrastructure so it now
covers the following branches:
- releng/14.2 (14.2-RELEASE) (from latest and quarterly ports)
- releng/14.3 (14.3-RELEASE) (from latest and quarterly ports)
- stable/14 (14.3-STABLE) (from latest and quarterly ports)
- main (15.0-CURRENT) (only latest ports)

To use them, here is the necessary configuration:
(it can be added to /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/kmods.conf)

FreeBSD-kmods: {
	url: "pkg+https://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/KMODSFLAVOR",
	mirror_type: "src",
	signature_type: "fingerprints",
	fingerprints: "/usr/share/keys/pkg",
	enabled: yes
}

KMODSFLAVOR repect the following pattern:

kmods_PORTBRANCH_MINORRELEASE

List of what is being published:

Best regards,
