Summary

The porter's handbook in section 9.1 (as of r54044) proudly proclaims

pkg-message supports two formats:

raw

A regular plain text file. Its message is always displayed, on install, and on upgrade.

But that's untrue. Fix create-manifest.sh so that freshly created packages live up to that standard.

I should mention that this was tested successfully on sysutils/e2fsprogs.

mandree mentioned this in rP531610: graphics/rawtherapee: avoid 2>&1 in test, UCL conversion of pkg-message.Apr 13 2020, 3:26 PM

In this case, the documentation is wrong, I will fix the documentation.
