portage doesn't install configure file (patch/to/foo) to /etc anyomre if /etc/path/to/ existed and the same package version has been installed. I'll pick syslog-ng for example. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge syslog-ng 2. syslog-ng has been installed by portage (previous version sometime in the past) # genlop -t syslog-ng * app-admin/syslog-ng Wed Aug 18 09:34:26 2004 >>> app-admin/syslog-ng-1.6.5 merge time: 2 minutes and 12 seconds. Fri Oct 1 12:19:13 2004 >>> app-admin/syslog-ng-1.6.5-r1 merge time: 2 minutes and 6 seconds. Fri Oct 1 12:21:35 2004 >>> app-admin/syslog-ng-1.6.5-r1 merge time: 1 minute and 37 seconds. Fri Oct 1 12:25:31 2004 >>> app-admin/syslog-ng-1.6.5-r1 merge time: 2 minutes and 18 seconds. After syslog-ng emerged, portage correctly copy the syslog-ng.conf to /etc/syslog-ng/._cfg0000_syslog-ng.conf I did a etc-update and merged the changed. 3. emerge syslog-ng (again) Actual Results: syslog-ng doesn't get copy to /etc/syslog-ng/ Expected Results: syslog-ng get copy to /etc/syslog-ng/._cfg0000_syslog-ng.conf and prompt me to do a etc-update. the reason I emerge then reemerge is I am testing some USE flags for an ebuild I maintained and notice this. # emerge info Portage 2.0.51_rc7 (default-linux/x86/2004.2/gcc34/2.6, gcc-3.4.1, glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r0, 2.6.8 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.8 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.80GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.5.3 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r4 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r1 Binutils: sys-devel/binutils-2.15.90.0.1.1-r3 Headers: sys-kernel/linux26-headers-2.6.8.1 Libtools: sys-devel/libtool-1.5.2-r5 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/share/config:/usr/kde/3.3/env:/usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs cvs distlocks sandbox sfperms sign userpriv usersanbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.osuosl.org" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts crypt cups dba encode foomaticdb gd gd-external gdbm gif gnome gpm gtk gtk2 imlib java jpeg kde ldap libg++ libwww mad mikmod mmx motif mpeg ncurses nls oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png postgres python qt quicktime readline sdl session slang spell sse ssl tcltk tcpd tifftruetype unicode x86 xml2 xmms xprint xv zlib"
