Does anyone have experience with Gentoo's etc-update?
The emerge system doesn't update files in /etc/, but rather creates
temporary files. When you run etc-update it searches for the temporary files
and displays the differences between the original config file and the
'proposed' configfile. You can accept (the/certain) changes or completely
reject the update. Whatever you like.
I think the same type of behaviour can be applied to a make upgrade.
Personally, I don't like the /etc/defaults/services. After it is updated,
you still need to manually check if any of those updates would apply to
/etc/services. Or do I completely missed something here...?
