After running a quick test on one of my own repos, I can NOT confirm
your observations:
# mv meta.txz packagesite.txz /tmp
# pkg update -f
Updating custom repository catalogue...
pkg: file:///opt/Software/FreeBSD-10.1/Client-Packages-i386/meta.txz: No such file or directory
repository custom has no meta file, using default settings
pkg: file:///opt/Software/FreeBSD-10.1/Client-Packages-i386/packagesite.txz: No such file or directory
Unable to update repository custom
# ln -s /tmp/meta.txz
# ln -s /tmp/packagesite.txz
# pkg update -f
Updating custom repository catalogue...
Fetching meta.txz: 100% 264 B 0.3kB/s 00:01

Processing entries: 100%
custom repository update completed. 826 packages processed.
I'm using a home-brewed script, not poudriere, to maintain my repos,
but I doubt that has anything to do with your issue.
By the way, what happens when you try to access these files directly?
# tar tf meta.txz
# tar tf .latest/meta.txz
# tar tf packagesite.txz
# tar tf .latest/packagesite.txz
I think you need to describe your setup in more detail. For example,
how do you access your repo? NFS? CIFS? nullfs? Could this just be some
kind of permissions issue? There's plenty of moving parts involved here,
and I'm almost certain that the symptoms you are seeing are not actually
related to pkg itself. (Please don't quote me on that, though. ;-))
