            Bug ID: 237794
           Summary: Porters Handbook: clarifications for 10.5. Poudriere
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: vladimir.chukharev@gmail.com

Two clarifications are needed in section '10.5. Poudriere' of the Porters
Handbook.

1. Poudriere does not creates a directory DISTFILES_CACHE if does not exist,
see https://github.com/freebsd/poudriere/issues/285
I suggest to add at the end of DISTFILES_CACHE description (in "10.5.2. Setting
Up Poudriere") something like the following.
You might need to create the directory manually if poudriere complains that it
does not exist.

2. There are changes in how to use manually managed ports, see
https://github.com/freebsd/poudriere/wiki/use_system_ports_tree . I think, this
is to be reflected in '10.5.6. Using Manually Managed Ports Trees with
Poudriere'.
(I did not use the new method myself. I made a symlink before I found the
description, but I cannot recommend doing that...)
