Discussion: I set up a Poudriere repo on host A (192.168.1.149). It has all the packages needed to bootstrap pkg on another host with a barebones install. My issue seems to be with bootstrapping pkg on a bare-bones host B (192.168.1.120), a practice VM. On host B, I pointed pkg to the Poudriere...

And another question is more about...
