#60401 closed defect (fixed)

2048.cpp: scores.txt and statistics.txt are registered to the port

Reported by: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt) Owned by: chenguokai (Xim)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.6.2
Keywords: Cc:
Port: 2048.cpp

Description

The files scores.txt and statistics.txt are registered to the port:

$ port contents 2048.cpp
Port 2048.cpp contains:
  /opt/local/bin/2048
  /opt/local/var/2048.cpp/data/scores.txt
  /opt/local/var/2048.cpp/data/statistics.txt

This means that if the port is upgraded, or deactivated and reactivated, or uninstalled and reinstalled, those files will be deleted and replaced with fresh copies. The names of those files make it sound like that would be undesirable, i.e. I don't think a user would expect their high scores to be wiped out by upgrading to a new version.

Indeed a problem here, I will submit a patch adding a check for existing files, like the way used in apache2.
