(In reply to Mark Millard from comment #256)

There is no reason for you to build what you do not
need to install now that such is allowed.

The flavored graphics/gpu-firmware-amd-kmod dates
back to: 2022-05-01 and raven was present at the time.

It is very different for the official package builders:
No user-installation directly but making everything
available for a wide variety of installation contexts:
build all but allow installing just what is needed
based on using flavors to advantage.

Default build procedures are biased to the official-builder
context. That is why there is a graphics/gpu-firmware-kmod
that builds or installs all the gpu-firmware* but also a
graphics/gpu-firmware-amd-kmod that supports using just
graphics/gpu-firmware-amd-kmod@raven to build or install
just the one variant.

Building graphics/drm-510-kmod does not build any
graphics/gpu-firmware*-kmod as far as I know for
how things are now.


I'll note that, in my view, testing the official
builds that FreeBSD does to produce the packages is
appropriate, even if you wanted to go back to building
your own. Why? Being able to compare/contrast the two.
If one way things just work and the other way they fail,
that is significant. Also, if you demonstrate the
failure using official package builds, you are more
likely to get support for the problem.
