One enhancement we could potentially make would be to not overwrite
versions of these files. That way, if you remove their contents once,
subsequent versions of MacPorts would not overwrite you change. The
downside of that is that if we wanted to push out changes to these
files, it would be less-clear how to update existing users.
Comments, anyone?
Could an option be added to configure to disable installing these at
all, obviously the default should be to install them.
Yes, that's certainly a possibility, but I'm not sure it's worth the
time and added complexity. Can you explain your objection to the
double paths, other than on aesthetic grounds? ;)
