Description Martin Kammerhofer 2005-02-02 11:10:24 UTC 
Going sysinstall's binary upgrade route from 4.10 to 4.11 I noticed
that while /etc/login.conf was preserved /etc/login.conf.db has been
overwritten.

Fix: 1.) Run
# cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf
after the binary upgrade.

2.) Fix sysinstall with the patch below.
Note: Patch is against RELENG_4 but can be equally well applied
against the repo copied sysinstall in
src/usr.sbin/sysinstall/installUpgrade.c too.

Adding to audit trail, from misfiled PR 77909:

 There are other lost-on-bin-upgrade files in /etc too.
 This PR should probably merged into PR bin/20282

sysinstall has been replaced by bsdinstall in FreeBSD 9.x. Closing.
