I=E2=80=99ve setup a new FreeBSD 12.1 system and am going to give =
poudriere a whirl on it.

The machine is currently setup as a two drive zfs mirror and I have used =
pkg to install a few basic things (sudo, zsh, poudriere itself, etc).

I am reading through =
<https://wiki.freebsd.org/VladimirKrstulja/Guides/Poudriere#A3._Create_the=
_list_of_ports_wanted_in_the_repo> and I have some questions.

First, the example of says that if we don=E2=80=99t change any options, =
the defaults will be used. OK, but it makes no mention on how we might =
change or set options? Is this simply talking about the build options =
panels that sometimes come up (Build examples, support ssl, use sqlite =
or MySQL, etc), and when I first go to build a =E2=80=9Cpersistent =
list=E2=80=9D those option screens will come up and I can make changes =
and they will be saved? Or is there something else that I need to do?

Second, let's say that I want to setup the machine to build postfix, =
dovecot, apache, pigeonhole, marisadb, postfixadmin, rpoundcube, and =
horde all in on =E2=80=9Cpersistent list=E2=80=9D since all of these =
pacajkges are need to do mail and webmail, do I simply list the packages =
in a single file the way the page lists www/firefox?

Once I have poudriere setup and running and I=E2=80=99m comfortable with =
it, do I need to do anything to have it =E2=80=9Ctake over=E2=80=9D sudo =
and anything else that I installed via pkg?

Sorry for the rather basic questions.
