#23113 new defect

cacti should not register user-modifiable files to itself

Reported by: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt) Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.8.2
Keywords: Cc:
Port: cacti

Description

cacti currently installs a file config.php, then the port prints instructions advising the user to edit this file. The user's changes will be lost when the user upgrades the port. The port should instead install a sample config file, e.g. config.php.sample, and advise the user to copy this to config.php and edit it.

Summary: cacti should install a sample config filecacti should not register user-modifiable files to itself

Similarly, cacti should not install the file cacti.log, because upgrading or uninstalling the port will delete the logfile, which is undesirable.
