* Then the commented-out line is added (once) as documentation. Another * question is what happens if an already existing commented-out line has * nothing to do with the GN port. It is simple to fix the inconsistencies * raised by both these questions. Alternatively, the inetd.conf entry could * be documented elsewhere instead. Can you make it check if the /etc/inetd.conf entry is correct, and print out a message to the screen if it is not? The user has to edit /etc/inetd.conf anyway, so doing a cut & paste doesn't seem much more work than deleting a #. You can make it a post-install script (see pkg_add(1)) and just call it from the post-install target, so that it works for packages too (I know packaging is disabled by default -- but since you already added a hook to create a package...). Right now, make will just silently add a commented-out entry, which seems even less useful than silently adding an uncommented entry. :) Satoshi
