https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=204549 Bug ID: 204549 Summary: freebsd-update should fetch e.g. /etc/ntp.conf.default Product: Base System Version: 9.3-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: conf Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: dave@horsfall.org If I modify /etc/ntp.conf to add say my ADSL router, freebsd-update will not retrieve any new version. Instead, it should maintain say /etc/ntp.conf.default, and let the user sort it out. If I dare to modify a user-modifiable file: aneurin# freebsd-update fetch Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... none found. Fetching metadata signature for 9.3-RELEASE from update.FreeBSD.org... done. Fetching metadata index... done. Inspecting system... done. Preparing to download files... done. The following files are affected by updates, but no changes have been downloaded because the files have been modified locally: /etc/ntp.conf The following files will be removed as part of updating to 9.3-RELEASE-p30: aneurin# If I capitulate and put the original back: aneurin# freebsd-update fetch Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... none found. Fetching metadata signature for 9.3-RELEASE from update.FreeBSD.org... done. Fetching metadata index... done. Inspecting system... done. Preparing to download files... done.
