> I don't know if poudriere cleans out stale versions
poudriere does clean out stale binaries before starting the build run, BUT
uses pkgng for actually determining the stale packages in the repo AFAIK.

So by your (Melvyn) finding, since the poudriere compiler jail uses and
installs pkgng before anything else to the build environment, it makes sense
that pkgng in the build jail could decide to skip certain dependencies for a
particular port build.

Regards.
