Description Gaute Hope 2004-09-15 11:07:16 UTC 
When doing an etc-update after some config files being updated, and i don't want to update them. I select -3, interactive mode with `mv` I belive, when I choose not to update the file etc-update continues to ask about the same file again and again until I manually delete the ._cfg* file. 

It works if I select 'y' and do update the file.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Emerge some ebuild that contains config files
1. Or just `echo > /etc/._cfg0000_rc.conf`
2. etc-update
3. Enter -3 when etc-update asks about what to do with the file
4. Choose 'n' when mv asks.
Actual Results:  
It went into a loop asking the same question again and again.

Expected Results:  
Removed/Moved the config file.
