Description Lawrence Ho 2002-06-22 16:10:02 UTC 
User "www" was added when running mergemaster during 4.5 -> 4.6 upgrade. Apache is not installed before, cvsup and make install leads to the following error:

===>  Installing for apache-2.0.39_2
PKG_PREFIX=/usr/local /bin/sh pkg-install apache-2.0.39_2 PRE-INSTALL
pw: user 'www' already exists
Adding user "www" failed...
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/www/apache2.

How-To-Repeat: cd /usr/ports/www/apache2
make install

Hi,

Please ignore this pr. I found that I need to run pwd_mkdb after merging the
master.passwd manually. That was my first time to make world "successfully".
The port installed smoothly, sorry about the incorrect report.
