pkgbase has been unofficially building some stable/{15,16}/ builds that
have had no referencing material on https://www.freebsd.org/platforms/
or on https://pkg.freebsd.org/ for some time.

https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:i386/ is still populated.

I assume such is deliberate for development testing or such reasons
while avoiding messing up official distributions, not for release reasons.

So I reported freebsd:15:x86:32 since the 2026-03-27 build is a recent
and lack of updates is a change, just to make sure it was noticed. I've
no means of knowing on my own if it was a deliberate stop of the build.

freebsd:16:x86:32 is still being built with the other freebsd:16:* and
is also not listed on https://www.freebsd.org/platforms/ or on
https://pkg.freebsd.org/ . But it does not have a populated/accessible
https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:16:i386/ .

I was not trying to object to the status either, just noting changes of
recent status to freebsd:15:x86:32 . I do not use either one.

Yep. The expected status for these two is clear, given
https://www.freebsd.org/platforms/ and https://pkg.freebsd.org/ .
