>Description:

The ganglia-webfrontend installation includes a file called conf.php that sets parameters for the WEB display.  This file sets a variable RRDTOOL to /usr/bin/rrdtool, which is incorrect.  It should be ${LOCALBASE}/bin/rrdtool.  As a result, many features of the ganglia web interface don't work out of the box.

The original port Makefile patches conf.php in ${WRKSRC} with a ${REINPLACE} in post-patch, but the configure script that runs next recreates conf.php,so the patched version is lost.

This update simply moves the ${REINPLACE} to the build phase, after configure has regenerated conf.php.

>How-To-Repeat:
Install the ganglia-webfrontend and ganglia-monitor-core ports, edit their configuration files, and configure apache as directed.
>Fix:
Unified diff attached.
