https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D253203 --- Comment #2 from Duane <parakleta@darkreality.org> --- (In reply to Chris Hutchinson from comment #1) I=E2=80=99m administering a multiuser system in an educational setting and = I need to preset certain global preferences that users cannot edit and that wont be l= ost due to a reinstall of the package (and that wont prevent me from seeing the default version of the preferences if it=E2=80=99s updated). I=E2=80=99m not sure how the `pkg` system works if I edit an installed file= . Does it leave it undisturbed across an uninstall/reinstall cycle? And if something important changes in the default config with a version update how will I be able to see it? As an example other programs often seem to have a .conf and a .conf.default which could be an alternative option. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
