:Well,

:>I completely fail to see the point, because this isn't something that can be

:I don't see a reason for this, too, since make's upgrade target has

:no file being partly overridden...so what the fsck? What really
:bothers me is /etc/services being overwritten on every make upgrade,

Sorry, mixup between old and new threads.
/etc/mailer.conf is 'fixed', no further changes are envisioned.
The expectation for /etc/services is to have it and /etc/defaults/services.
