I am writing to see if something can be done to reduce the effects of
updating pciids on package builds.  Every time poudriere needs to
rebuild pciids, it causes a cascade of rebuilds of hundreds of other
ports and adds a few hours to my build.  I'm not familiar enough with
how pciids is used to know if it might get included into other packages
or if it is just a text file that is read at runtime.  If it is only
read at runtime, can there be a way to tell poudriere not to delete
dependencies much like it does for pkg itself, or would it be possible
to update this port less frequently such as once a month?  My concern
comes from having to do large builds only days apart when there are
otherwise minor updates to the ports tree.  I have the same frustration
when curl is updated frequently too.  Thanks.
