[This is without modifying /usr/local/share/poudriere/* .]

# poudriere version
poudriere-git-3.4.99.20251014

# poudriere jail -l
JAILNAME       VERSION     OSVERSION ARCH  METHOD    TIMESTAMP           PATH

official-i386  stable-14             i386  freebsdci 2025-10-23 18:47:08 /usr/local/poudriere/jails/official-i386

# du -xsAm /usr/local/poudriere/jails/*/
2304	/usr/local/poudriere/jails/official-amd64/
514	/usr/local/poudriere/jails/official-i386/

It is a UFS context, not ZFS.


The above is after having also done a clean operation after the
jail update. So the prior sequence included . . .

# poudriere jail -j  official-amd64 -u
[00:00:00] Upgrading using pkgbase
. . .

# pkg-static -c /usr/local/poudriere/jails/official-amd64 clean
The following package files will be deleted:
/var/cache/pkg/FreeBSD-nvme-tools-15.snap20251011015136~5ee9f14833.pkg
. . .
/var/cache/pkg/FreeBSD-clibs-dev-15.snap20251019074422.pkg
The cleanup will free 353 MiB

Proceed with cleaning the cache? [y/N]: y
Deleting files: 100%
