Feature #14218
closed
Package manifests could be maintained in v2 format
100%
Description
The IPS pkgfmt utility supports two formats, the original format which was basically alphabetic, and a new (more aesthetic) format that groups things together by path.
The package manifests in gate are currently maintained and checked against the v1 format since, at the time, not everyone had upgraded to a version of pkg that supported the new format.
It's been 10 years, it is probably safe to move to the v2 format now, and update the checks accordingly.
As part of this change, I'm also planning to add a pbchk module to check manifest formats.

Tested by doing a full build, including the packaging checks and protocmp step and ensuring it was clean.
Did a test `onu` to the resulting image as an extra check.
