For example: - /usr/local/etc/samba34 breaks authentication (old db was in ../samba) - /var/spool/samba34 break printing (old smb.conf referenced ../samba) Since there is no way to install multiple versions of samba3.X and it will cause similar headaches in future updates (35, 36, ...), I see no need for such renaming If for some reason you still want to keep it that way then please document upgrade process in UPDATING or pkg-message. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
