    Kindly advice what is recommended actions for the "example"
    configuration files after the port application install.

    From the point of package database the removing or moving those files
    will cause database inconsistency.

    From the point of administrator to have a lot of useless files in
    configuration directories is unwanted .

    Example: after installations of amavis-new port there was 3 sample
    files in /usr/local/etc/ directory:

    *amavisd.conf-default
    *amavisd.conf-dist
    *amavisd.conf-sample

Jaroslav Kucher.
