Do we normally do this? What about people that upgrade? (I > always do a pkg_delete first...) My reading is that it doesn't matter. If you have real config files in etc/zebra, then the @dirrm will fail, because the directory won't be empty. There will, however, be a "directory not empty" diagnostic that might alarm the user. The apache port uses the same approach that zebra now does, except that it does not do a @dirrm; my suggestion is that the @dirrm be removed on aesthetic grounds (to avoid the diagnostic). These conclusions are just from glancing at the port. I haven't actually *tried* any of this, God forbid... PS- I nominate Eivind for "Coolest Hostname/MX Among FreeBSD Developers".
