And the build failures depending on WRKOBJDIR are complete unrlated
to anything. I tried a bunch of random WRKOBJDIRs, and here are the
results:
/usr/orks/pobj success
/usr/ports-pobj success
/usr/ports/2 success
/usr/ports/fooo success
/usr/ports/pobj success
/foo/bar/pobj fail
/foo/ports/pobj fail
/pobj/p/2 fail
/pobj/p2 fail
/pobj/pobj2 fail
/usr/obj/p fail
(And I made sure in those tests that WRKOBJDIR as the correct
permissions and belongs to _pbuild:_pbuild)
So, something here is just completely broken. It looks like a prefix
of '/usr/ports' leaads to success, but that can't be the reason,
because /usr/orks/pobj works, too. I suspect something around meson
or glib-mkenums, either in those tools themselve or in the way they
are used in control-center.
