Manage your own package jail

Manage your own packages build on a dedicated build system.

The build system does the update of the ports tree, moving old packages out of the way, fetch and rebuild the packages you need. Its ports tree with packages is served to the production systems and desktops.

On a system you can update installed ports with the clean build packages from the build system.
