You're using the wrong PM, then. Try Gentoo's portage on for size. By default it protects config dirs and you update them using a script that does a 3-way diff. But you can tell it what further to protect/ unprotect, and even use VCS (svn, probaby git by now...) managed config setups, if you like. =:^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
