Hello,
one port I am maintaining recently started using the sysconfdir set by
GNU configure script to install default config files.
By just using it, it will override user changed config files.
I am thinking of using passing "--sysconfig=${EXAMPLESDIR}" as
CONFIGURE_ARGS.
Is EXAMPLESDIR a good/valid location? Should I print some message
pointing the user to this directory?
I am not sure if it has any side effects (used somewhere within the
code), but I will check for this.
What is best current practice of installing default config files for
FreeBSD ports?
Kind regards
Markus
