            Bug ID: 296971
           Summary: devel/athens: startup always fails instantly
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: bofh@freebsd.org
          Reporter: bob@vesterman.com
             Flags: maintainer-feedback?(bofh@freebsd.org)
          Assignee: bofh@freebsd.org

I just upgraded to the latest devel/athens, and it no longer starts up.
Instead, it instantly fails with:

=====================================
flag provided but not defined: -T
Usage of /usr/local/bin/athens:
  -config_file string
        The path to the config file
=====================================

I strongly believe this is due to the recent change for bug #292551
("devel/athens: syslog messages don't really identify it"). It looks to me like
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/athens was changed to add a "-T {name}" to the daemon
command, but as it was added *after* the command that daemon is supposed to run
(i.e. athens itself), it is interpreted as being a param for athens, not one
for daemon.
