Info : Now, package update for WMs will not replace your modified configs (previously, backing-up your configs in ~/.config).

Instead, It'll install new updates in separate directory (eg: ~/.config/openbox_pacnew_2023-10-12), It'll be your choice to use your current config or updated one.

You can use meld to merge updates in your current modified configs.
