That would be even easier if the dropping of 2 lines was carried out
automatically. I know people lazy enough to deinstall a port if they must
do any post-config for themselves ("make deinstall" is easier than thinking
for a few seconds).
Just for the records, I'm *not* one of them:
% cat /etc/periodic.conf
monthly_statistics_enable=yes
monthly_statistics_report_devices=yes
I can see some of my odd hardware in the stats page! ;)
