I considered that myself. There's no clear standard followed by ot= her ports installing periodic scripts -- some are enabled by default, others aren't. In the end I went for having it on by default as installing it does indicate a desire to run it. It's no big deal to switch it around though. > So if might be a good idea to set the defaults to "NO" and include a > pkg-message that instructs people to add the enabling lines in > /etc/periodic.conf.local Sure.

I've a small cosmetic change -- it needs= to print a blank line before anything else -- and apart from the enabled by default or not question, I need to force it to do a rules update somehow,= so that code path gets tested properly.
