I usually make copies of both the originals and my own customizations, then keep backups in a safe location. If it gets changed, or on new installations, I just overwrite the file with my own customized version. There are a number of these ~rc files for which I make such backups. Also you might check permissions, to make sure that only root gets rw privileges, and other users are read-only. By the way, I don't experience that problem when I upgrade. Redoing those same config files is wasted effort; once you get it how you want, just keep overwriting from your backup versions. Bill
