Ports and poudriere supports "overlay" for some time (it was added in
the last year)
So you can use default ports tree plus your own tree with own ports or
modified existing ports and build packages from both of them.
Both ports trees must be registred in poudriere. In this example it will
be "default" and "mfh_overlay". The second contains my modifications.
# poudriere ports -l
PORTSTREE METHOD TIMESTAMP PATH
default svn+https 2021-01-15 20:23:10 /vol0/poudriere/ports/default
headtest portsnap 2020-03-10 12:37:55 /vol0/poudriere/ports/headtest
mfh_overlay svn+https 2019-11-04 16:33:04 /vol0/poudriere/ports/mfh_overlay
And the you can run "poudriere bulk" command with -O and the name of
your "overlay" tree - "mfh_overlay" in this case ("monitoring" is the
name of my packages set used only on machines doing monitoring stuff)
# poudriere bulk -v -j 11_4_amd64 -z monitoring -p default -O
mfh_overlay -f /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/pkglists/monitoring
But there is one problem. "poudriere bulk" supports overlay with -O but
"poudriere options" not. It means you cannot run "poudriere options" to
configure options for both trees. Poudriere ends with error about
nonexistent ports origin if it exists only in overlay tree and not in
the default tree.
