Poudriere has always been the main (FreeBSD) tool for QA and package building. Note: While poudriere has overlapping functionality with portmaster and portupgrade, in the sense that they all "build ports", poudriere was designed primarily as a "package builder", not as a local port/package installation tool, though it *can* be used that way. > What is the status of portmaster and portupgrade now? Both are maintained as far as I know. portmaster has FLAVOR support, I'm not sure about portupgrade re FLAVORS, though I do recall seeing reports of it not working in the not so distant past, so it may not.
