If your port requires some configuration files in
PREFIX/etc
, do
not just install them and list them in
pkg-plist
. That will cause
pkg_delete(1) to delete files carefully edited by
the user and a new installation to wipe them out.
Instead, install sample files with a suffix
(filename.sample
will work well). Copy the sample file as the real configuration
file, if it does not exist. On deinstall, delete the configuration
file, but only if it was not modified by the user. You need to
handle this both in the port Makefile
, and in
the pkg-plist
(for installation from
the package).
Example of the Makefile
part:
post-install: @if [ ! -f ${PREFIX}/etc/orbit.conf ]; then \ ${CP} -p ${PREFIX}/etc/orbit.conf.sample ${PREFIX}/etc/orbit.conf ; \ fi
Example of the pkg-plist
part:
@unexec if cmp -s %D/etc/orbit.conf.sample %D/etc/orbit.conf; then rm -f %D/etc/orbit.conf; fi etc/orbit.conf.sample @exec if [ ! -f %D/etc/orbit.conf ] ; then cp -p %D/%F %B/orbit.conf; fi
Alternatively, print out a message pointing out that the user has to copy and edit the file before the software can be made to work.
