portmaster was zero dependencies, so it doesn't brake after major
upgrades.
You are free to use poudriere and it definitely is the official tool
for FreeBSD package building (and I have to use it myself and it has
cost me a lot of time rebuilding broken poudriere jails and keeping
them in state that I can use them to test new ports on a number of
different releases as well as i386 plus amd64).
And while you are free to never again use portmaster, telling people
that it has been abandoned is just a _lie_ and I'd want to ask you to
stop telling it. It has been continuously maintained for decades.
I remember portmaster marked as deprecated in 2016. I've switched to
poudriere because of that. So, it _was_ abandoned when I migrated. It is
good that it is not, the more options - the better. But some people here
telling that poudriere requires ZFS and powerful dedicated hardware, I
just pointed that they are wrong.
