 Jiri,
 
 I think I understand what happened. In fact all previous versions of the
 port were removing the configuration files when removing the port. From
 pkg-plist, revision 1.13:
 
 %%T%%/conf/catalina.policy
 %%T%%/conf/catalina.properties
 %%T%%/conf/jk2.properties
 %%T%%/conf/server-minimal.xml
 %%T%%/conf/server.xml
 %%T%%/conf/tomcat-users.xml
 %%T%%/conf/web.xml
 
 So that's not a problem related to the new version of the port but
 rather something we fixed. From now, your configuration files will not
 be deleted.
