            Bug ID: 283679
           Summary: in release, make ftp fails, because DISTDIR in base
                    conflicts with DISTDIR in ports
           Product: Base System
           Version: 15.0-CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: dch@freebsd.org

DISTDIR has been used for a long time in PORTS, where tarballs are fetched to
allowing separating writable distfiles from read-only ports tree during build.

https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/porters-handbook/book/#slow-porting

This recently started conflicting with 15.0-CURRENT possibly after
41adc5f29ba6955e09f46e4d2c25da6fcd263ba2.

When make.conf has DISTDIR=/var/cache/distfiles, then (cd release && make ftp)
will fail.
