1 Hi,
2
3 www-apps/tt-rss is configured through a file config.php sitting
4 in its install directory. At the moment the file is overwritten
5 when upgrading with webapp-config. Who is responsible for
6 config-protecting this file?
7
8 a) the ebuild should install an env file (www-apps/otrs does this)
9 b) the user can be informed with einfo but needs to do it herself
10 c) This is a bug in webapp-config
11
12 c) seems strange to me, but a user has reported this in bug
13 496788 and it was closed as a duplicate implying c).
14
15 Cheers,
16 Thomas
