This port installs etc/dict.conf everytime and removes it even if this file is changed. Bump PORTREVISION since package contents are changed. Port maintainer (dd@FreeBSD.org) is cc'd. Generated with FreeBSD Port Tools 0.63 Fix: Changes follow Porters' Handbook 7.3 Configuration files. How-To-Repeat: install textproc/dict, change dict.conf, pkg_delete it. Then, etc/dict.conf is gone.

Perhaps the port should just be changed not to remove Yes, I know that dict.conf is required for dict to work correctly. So, my change installs both .sample and dict.conf, which the latter is installed if there is no dict.conf. > the file if there have been any changes to it? (I thought it was > already doing that, but haven't tested recently.) your post-install looks good, but dict.conf is in pkg-plist, so pkg_delete removes it unconditionally. Best, Rong-En Fan
