Description Frank Altpeter 2003-05-19 16:40:08 UTC 
	When updating the cvsd port, it does overwrite the cvsd
	configuration file in etc/cvsd/cvsd.conf without permission.

	This seems to be because the port doesn't rely on a
	cvsd.conf.sample like it's the usual way to place configuration
	files, but does write directly to the main configuration.

Fix: 

Add "s|cvsd.conf|cvsd.conf.sample|g" to the REINPLACE_CMD
	in post-patch target within the ports Makefile.



P.S. This bug has already been reported to the maintainer long time ago,
but it seems to be lost or ignored.
How-To-Repeat: 	root@murphy:/usr/local/etc/cvsd 0# md5 cvsd.conf
	MD5 (cvsd.conf) = 85c6bd38d7e75dad92a605cf29bed870
	murphy:/usr/local/etc/cvsd 0# vi cvsd.conf
	root@murphy:/usr/local/etc/cvsd 0# md5 cvsd.conf
	MD5 (cvsd.conf) = e98810ac3cc5521d3daf50a5a5f52858
	murphy:/usr/local/etc/cvsd 0# cd
	murphy:~ 0# portupgrade -f cvsd
	murphy:~ 0# cd -
	root@murphy:/usr/local/etc/cvsd 0# md5 cvsd.conf 
	MD5 (cvsd.conf) = 85c6bd38d7e75dad92a605cf29bed870

	As you can see, modified cvsd.conf is getting killed and
	modifications are lost.
