Hi all, like many we run our own poudriere to build the packages for our = infrastructure. Fetching packages from the standard FreeBSD repos for ports with default = options is a long requested feature. Of course I understand it will not be = implemented by elves and neither do we have the knowledge and manpower to help in this = particular area. What I am interested in: there are a handful to a dozen ports that take = exceptionally long to build. GCC, LLVM, rustlang =E2=80=A6=20 Notably these are all =E2=80=9Einfrastructure=E2=80=9C ports that are = built as dependencies and we do not change the options of any of them. Did anyone implement a lean hack = for a few selected packages to be fetched as binaries? E.g. check if they are newer in the FreeBSD quarterly repo, put them in = our own repo, rebuild the repo index and then start poudriere bulk =E2=80=A6? Would that work?
