Have I got anything wrong, or is it just not working?

Your poudriere jail is likely still 15.0.

Er yes.

poudriere jail -u does not upgrade through minor versions.

Got it working now. Ready to do a day long poudriere of everything.

And now it seems in general, upgrading Freebsd though minor versions is getting as convoluted as major versions.
 
Ah, never noticed that poudriere jail -u doesn't handle minor version upgrades automatically on distribution based runs, as I'm using locally built /usr/obj that is built against local src tree for updating poudriere.

I'm always tracking the latest stable branch (currently stable/15) and using source upgrading method, this allows my poudriere jail 100% match the bare-metal in single commit level.

And when switching stable branch (most recently, stable/14 to stable/15), I'm creating new poudriere jail for the new branch, and once everything goes fine, delete old jail to save SSD spaces.
 
You need to add -t if you want to upgrade the jail's version.

Code: 
       -t version	Upgrade	the jail to the	specified version  instead  of
			upgrading to the latest	security fix.

I usually don't bother with version upgrades, just create a new jail with the new version. But I have to have repositories voor several different versions anyway. And I'm not able to upgrade all my systems in one go, so need repositories for the 'old' and 'new' versions while I work my way through upgrading everything.

Most kmod ports that are NOT depending on LinuxKPI could be said depending on minor versions.

But anything depending on LinuxKPI like graphics/drm-*-kmod and graphics/nvidia-drm-*-kmod* depends on even "single commit" to LinuxKPI.
This is why src tree used for building kmod ports depending on LinuxKPI and running kernel (including in-base kmods like LinuxKPI) is needed to be in exact, 100% in sync with single commit level to LinuxKPI.

Even for -p* patch releases, if the update contains any modification to LinuxKPI, kmod ports built against previous patch release could be broken on new patch release. Same is said in reverse.

In other words, if nothing is committed to LinuxKPI until previous and current patch release, the kmods built against previous patch release are expected to run on current patch release.

Always exceptions can happen, though, basic kernel module interfaces are expected to be kept binary compatible throuout single major releases.
LinuxKPI is clearly the exception.

Funny, I've dealt with this issue with every minor version for longer than you've been a member here, nothing's changed. The only thing that changed is an attempt to make things a bit better during that three month transition phase.

This has been a long standing problem with every new minor version release when the old minor version still needed to be supported.
