Description:

I just re-installed synergy and it erased my /etc/synergy.conf file. This file should be marked as a configuration file in the PKGBUILD, no?

Additional info:
* package version(s)
1.8.8-3
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
- install synergy
- edit /etc/synergy.conf
- reinstall synergy
This task depends upon

What you're claiming simply isn't possible. That file isn't even in the package, or in any package in the repos.

My profuse apologies ; you're (obviously) correct. I have no idea what happened, but I can't duplicate it now.

Again, sorry for the confusion...
