Hi lists,
I upgraded Xfree86-clients from ports using portupgrade today and noticed that
xdm was no longer working afterwards.
After some searching i found that the config files in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm had
been overwritten.
Since i had a similar problem with another port the other day, i want to ask:
- Is this expected behaviour?
- Should i manually inspect my config files after each portupgrade?
- Or is this just a bug in XFree86-clients (and possibly some other ports)?
Luckily, my changes to the config files were only minor, so i did not have to
restore them from tape :-)
Anyway it's annoying..
Regards,
