It always writes it, so it assumes it is being built in poudriere. If that's not your case you can just ignore it. BUT, if you're building it in a jail (which is similar to what poudriere does), you should check your jail limits and make sure maxfiles is 8192 or higher. That is just a warning to poudriere users. BTW while poudriere is definitely not mandatory for users, for port maintainers it is highly suggested: official packages are built using poudriere, so ports must work in poudriere, and maintainers should also verify and test that. -- Guido Falsi <mad@madpilot.net>
