I am doing a lot of inter-machine testing of a private port (will be released soon as a actual port) but need to tell "make deinstall" not to delete a certain file... how do we do this?... background one thing we are testing is the ability to upgrade the port (privately) and it must not nuke our settings file on the test machines because the default config provided by our port is inappropriate for how we have things configured (it is correct for 99.9% of everyone else though). Namely we need: 1. Do not delete /usr/local/etc/petitecloud/settings on deinstall 2. Do not overwrite it with a new version on install (if present else install it)
