--- Comment #1 from Guido Falsi <madpilot@FreeBSD.org> ---
Hi,

This was an onging issue up to commit [1], which fixed it, but only for fut=
ure
updates.

This is due to how pkg works. When previous versione were installed the
`/usr/local/etc/pam.d/lightdm` file was registered in the plist as is. From=
 now
on the file `/usr/local/etc/pam.d/lightdm.sample` is added to the plist and
removed automatically, while `/usr/local/etc/pam.d/lightdm` will be removed=
 or
overwritten only if it has not been customized, thanks to the @sample keywo=
rd
in the plist.

Since I added those files as samples in version 1.32.0_2 future updated will
not overwrite the file anymore if customized.

If you want to test this you can try doing `pkg upgrade -f lightdm` which f=
orce
a pkg upgrade and with the latest version the pam file will not be overwrit=
ten
anymore.

Feel free to ask for clarifications, but if you are persuaded by this
explanation, please close this bug report.
