Don't clobber configuration files if reinstalled.
No PORTREVISION bump, because otherwise many will blindly update and possibly lose everything. Hopefully people will read UPDATING before the next update! PR: ports/173238 PR: ports/173233 Submitted by: crees Approved by: kevlo (maintainer) Feature safe: yes

+ AUTHOR: crees@FreeBSD.org
+
+ www/owncloud includes the entire WWWDIR directory structure in pkg-plist.
+
+ This means that if you upgrade it, your config files are added to pkg-plist,
+ and are then removed on the next deinstall.
+
+ This issue has been fixed, but you must back up your install of owncloud and
+ reinstall to avoid data loss;
+
+ # cd /usr/ports/www/owncloud
+ # tar cfC /tmp/owncloud.tar `make -VWWWDIR` .
+ # make deinstall
+ # tar xfC /tmp/owncloud.tar `make -VWWWDIR`
+ # make install clean && rm /tmp/owncloud.tar
