How does setup.exe cope with upgrading of already installed packages if
there exist modification in installed files?
I customize HG templates under:
/lib/python2.6/site-packages/mercurial/templates/gitweb/*
and would like preserve it when update happen.
And it will be good to be notified if conflict happen.
Also I try:
$ cygcheck -c mercurial
Cygwin Package Information
Package Version Status
mercurial 1.9.2-1 OK
when I try:
$ mv
/lib/python2.6/site-packages/mercurial/templates/gitweb/branches.tmpl
/lib/python2.6/site-packages/mercurial/templates/gitweb/branches~.tmpl
$ cygcheck -c mercurial
Cygwin Package Information
Package Version Status
mercurial 1.9.2-1 Incomplete
So "cygcheck -c" does not provide ability to find modification to
package files.
Also I worry about modification in other config files in /etc
(like /etc/apache2/httpd.conf). Are they overwritten on package update?
How can I be notified about upgrade conflicts?
What for '/etc/defaults' hierarchy was used?
