https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D217072 Bug ID: 217072 Summary: net-mgmt/nagvis: port update destroys installation! Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: ohartmann@walstatt.org CC: derfi@vei.ru CC: derfi@vei.ru Flags: maintainer-feedback?(derfi@vei.ru) In the chain of updating Xorg I had to update serveral ports and by acciden= t, I also included net-mgmt/nagvis. This port stores its etc/ folder under /usr/local/www/nagvis/etc. The folder contains maps and other crucial configuration stuff. An update, reinstallat= ion DESTROYS (or overwrites, but with the very same end result) all content of maps, automaps! Other ports store either their local configs in ETCDIR=3D/usr/local/etc or preserve the configs. I had a bunch of maps created my own and after this update, everything was gone, even the customisation of integration of nagvis in net-mgmt/icingaweb= 2. This is very bad. Even if someone does have a backup, this shouldn't be hap= pen. Either the content of this non-standard etc folder should be precious and n= ot deleted, or the standard etc folder should be delegated to /usr/local/etc/nagvis (or whatever is suitable in this case). Or do I miss something here and made a capital mistake? oh --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
