OK, that problem was easy to solve and unfortunately not correct described - I used different Repository Branches in the affected jails.

Sorry for the noise

> I am running halve a dozen jails on one freebsd host The jails were created and are managed with iocage. Both the host system and the jails were installed with a version from the FreeBSD 13 line and upgraded and updated since then. Actually they all run FreeBSD 14.3p12.

> * for some packages which are installed in more than one jail the packages is not updated in all jails
> * if I run the pkg-cmd-line again after some days the package will be updated in some more jails (somethimes in all affected jails)
