No -- the sample AFTERINSTALL stuff in pkgtools.conf will run any RC
scripts the package installs to try and start those services. This will
have no effect if:
* The daemon is already running
* There's no foo_enable=3D"yes" setting in /etc/rc.conf or equivalent.=
So daemons like mysql or slapd that get shutdown during the process of
updating the port will be restarted, but daemons like apache or snmpd
that don't get shutdown will still be running the old version and you'll
have to restart them manually, as you will have to configure and start
anything newly installed. =20
Cheers,
Matthew
