Not if it imposes itself.
It does not. The complexity of keeping such a huge number of
interdepend ports/packages building and running is not imposed
by poudriere, it's imposed by the general development pace.
Having tools like poudriere helps enormously to keep things
together.
If I've misunderstood the message reported to me by pkg(8) in my attempt
to create a package, and it *doesn't* prevent me from creating a
package in my chosen environment.
It does not prevent you, but the port (not pkg) message is written
in relation to poudriere. So yes, I think you misunderstood the
message. To be fair, the topic is complicated and formulating
a message that can not be misunderstood is non-trivial.
Indeed, and I apologize for misinterpreting the message. If it were me,
I'd have probably omitted the "The limit imposed by poudriere(8)" part and
maybe just included it in a poudriere(8) message. But that's just me, and the
ports framework doesn't revolve around me. ;)
Thanks for taking the time to help me here, Kurt. Much obliged! :)
