>Description:
After an upgrade of the py27-fail2ban port from py27-fail2ban-0.8.4_1 to py27-fail2ban-0.8.4_2, the edited /usr/local/etc/fail2ban/jail.conf file is overwritten with the default one.

I used the following command to upgrade:
"portmaster py27-fail2ban"

Is this the expected behavior? If yes, how can I keep my edited jail.conf during upgrades of this port?


Best regards
Henrik Larsson

>How-To-Repeat:
- Install old version of py27-fail2ban port
- Edit /usr/local/etc/fail2ban/jail.conf
- Upgrade py27-fail2ban port
- The jail.conf file is now back to default
