Hi,
mail/pine4/pkg/PLIST is creating pine.conf using the following two lines:
@exec %D/bin/pine -P %D/etc/pine.conf -conf >%D/etc/pine.conf.tmp
@exec /bin/mv %D/etc/pine.conf.tmp %D/etc/pine.conf
I'm not sure what the -P option of pine does but this raises the
following questions:
(1) Does it preserve the user's existing pine.conf? (I assume it
does, but just checking.)
(2) What would be an acceptable way of removing it on deinstallation?
Is there a way to determine whether the user modified it to be
something other than the "default" pine.conf? (If it is modified,
it shouldn't be removed -- if it is not, then it can safely be
removed, since a new installation will regenerate it properly.)
Thanks,
Satoshi
