Description Paul Hewlett 2007-12-04 13:00:14 UTC
When upgrading rsync, the upgrade process insists on moving rsyncd.conf to /etc instead of leaving it in /etc/rsync. I have other files with rsyncd that is convenient to leave in their own directory. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge rsync
2.cd /etc
  rsyncd.conf is now in /etc and not in /etc/rsync
3.


Expected Results:  
Leave /etc/rsync/rsyncd.conf alone

it isnt anything new to rsync-3.0.0 ... the code has always been there
Comment 2 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2009-01-08 06:14:39 UTC
presumably most people have made the transition now, so ive dropped the code in 3.0.5 ... anyone who hasnt can do it themselves when their server fails to start
