severity 493885 important
thanks

Hi Gregory

I think we should consider this bug as a serious or important bug.
This would mean that all existing installations of horde3 (from
stable for example) will have all the applications disabled
when they upgrade.

I know that this is simply an effect of the configuration file handling
and that people have not edited the file before in combination with
that the default value for the file has been updated. I think the
change is good, but we need to make something about this...

Do you think it would be possible to "automatically make the
configuration file edited" so that the configuration file handling
function detect the file as changed and ask the admin if it should
be replaced or not. I do not know at which stage the configuration
files are replaced.

What do you think?

Best regards,

// Ola
