I was rather frustrated by having the files removed. Since=20= it had never happened before with any other port, during any other=20 portupgrade I've ever encountered, I assumed there was a standard port=20= template that took care of this. I'm also wondering about the version=20 issue. Portupgrade upped me to 1.3.4, not 1.32f5 as you mentioned. Is=20 1.3.4 maintained by you? It isn't so much that the files were wiped, I just was expecting a=20 notification of it. I've been using ports for years, and portupgrade=20 for quite awhile too, never had a portupgrade wipe a file. Many people=20= use portupgrade, so I was under the assumption it would be tested with=20= it. It took me several hours to rebuild my bacula catalog so I could=20 restore my old config files. Many assumptions involved, obviously some weren't warranted. Sorry again Lars, Ben=
