In general, the porters handbook is trying to answer those questions.

https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/book.html

Please read the errors, it explains this. It literally says:

===> Checking for items in STAGEDIR missing from pkg-plist
Error: Orphaned: %%PORTDOCS%%%%DOCSDIR%%/tech-notes.txt
===> Checking for items in pkg-plist which are not in STAGEDIR
Error: Missing: %%DOCSDIR%%/tech-notes/tech-notes.txt

So you have to check pkg-plist for things that are there but
are no longer installed during the build *and* the other way around.

Have a look at the pkg-plist file and search for tech-notes.txt.

You'll find one line:

%%DOCSDIR%%/tech-notes/tech-notes.txt

and you can change it to:

%%PORTDOCS%%%%DOCSDIR%%/tech-notes.txt

and then:

rm -rf work
make check-plist

again.
