--- Comment #8 from Baptiste Daroussin <bapt@FreeBSD.org> ---
this is a bug in portupgrade, because portupgrade is unmaintained for years=
 and
never catchup with recent changes of both the ports tree.

here the bug in portupgrade is probably getting the format of the package
through PKG_SUFX variable from the ports, and passes it as compression form=
at
to pkg create via the -f argument.

PKG_SUFX has been change to .pkg alors with pkg 1.17.0 and the right variab=
le
from the ports tree to guess the format of package expected is
PKG_COMPRESSION_FORMAT.

The last update on portupgrade happened in 2018, since that date a lot happ=
en
in both pkg and the ports tree that portupgrade is not able to deal with.
