With higher priority given to my poudriere repository, why did
pkg upgrade not find the upgrade to virtualbox-ose?
Code:
% pkg -vv | grep -i conservative
CONSERVATIVE_UPGRADE = false;
% pkg -vv | grep priority
priority : 3,
priority : 0,
priority : 4
% pkg -vv | grep enabled
enabled : yes,
enabled : no,
enabled : yes,
% pkg -vv | grep url
url : "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/FreeBSD:14:amd64/latest",
url : "https://alpha.pkgbase.live/current/FreeBSD:14:amd64/latest",
url : "file:///usr/local/poudriere/data/packages/main-default",

% man 3 pkg_repos
…
pkg_repo_priority() takes a pointer to a repository as argument and
returns the priority of the repository as an unsigned integer. Packages
ae chosed preferentially from the repository with the highest priority
value and which has that package available.
…
% man 5 pkg.conf
…
CONSERVATIVE_UPGRADE: boolean
Ensure in multi repository mode that the priority is
given as much as possible to the repository where a
package was first installed from. Default: YES.
…
Repositories are processed in the order they are found on the REPOS_DIR
search path, with individual repository configuration files in the same
directory processed in alphabetical order. Settings from files later in
the search path will override those from earlier ones. Packages are
selected preferentially out of all the repositories that contain them
from the repository with the highest priority, so long as they are
suitable to solve the necessary dependency requirements. However, this
preference may be overruled when CONSERVATIVE_UPGRADE is set to true, in
which case a package will as far as possible always be upgraded from the
same repository the older installed version came from, as given in the
repository annotation of the installed package. See pkg-repository(8)
for details.
