Subject:   again, ports that stop daemons
Message-ID:  <4ED8C0F1.807@FreeBSD.org>

Can I again suggest that ports that stop their daemons on deinstall should
(MUST) try to (re-)start them upon install?

Or that they simply quit doing that and instead print a message like "Port X is
deinstalled but it may have some processes running, please do Y and/or Z to find
them and/or stop them".

We've seen some much better solutions being proposed (configurable behavior,
etc), but their implementation would take some time and the current status quo
is a real PITA.

Thank you very much for your attention.
