The following reply was made to PR ports/164659; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Matthias Fechner <idefix@fechner.net> To: Christoph Theis <theis@gmx.at> Cc: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: ports/164659: security/py-fail2ban overwrite config files Date: Wed, 07 Mar 2012 15:45:39 +0100 Dear Christoph, thanks for the information, I learned that lesson the hard way and had to restore all changed config files from a backup. To save other users from this experience my suggestion with the provided patch was to display a short instruction what has to be configured after the installation is done. I do not need that patch, I know it now, but maybe it helps a user which is new to fail2ban, to lose the config file with an upgrade. Thanks Matthias
