Michael, I am certainly not a guru regarding poudriere, or system updating. I
just now what I was told. Perhaps Matthew Seaman <matthew at FreeBSD.org> or
somebody with more knowledge about this than I can assist you.

All I know for certain is that I was told to update the poudriere jail, I
actually deleted the old one and created a new one, and then do a forced
rebuild of all installed ports. The following worked for me, after I created
a new jail. Obviously, the jail name here is mine.

  portmaster --list-origins | sort -d | tee "~/portlist.txt"
  poudriere bulk -c -f "~/portlist.txt" -j "12amd64"
  pkg upgrade -y

~ $ poudriere jail -l
JAILNAME VERSION         ARCH  METHOD TIMESTAMP           PATH
12amd64  12.0-RELEASE-p1 amd64 ftp    2018-12-21 18:25:41 /usr/local/poudriere/jails/12amd64

~ $ locate libmilter.so
/usr/lib/libmilter.so
/usr/lib/libmilter.so.6
/usr/lib32/libmilter.so
/usr/lib32/libmilter.so.6
/usr/local/poudriere/jails/12amd64/usr/lib/libmilter.so
/usr/local/poudriere/jails/12amd64/usr/lib/libmilter.so.6
/usr/local/poudriere/jails/12amd64/usr/lib32/libmilter.so
/usr/local/poudriere/jails/12amd64/usr/lib32/libmilter.so.6


Good Luck!
