UPDATE #2 (9:22 AM September 28): The updated Snort binary for 2.0.3 pfSense installs is now available in the files repository.
UPDATED INFO (9:30 PM September 27): I received a note back from the pfSense guys. There are some issues with getting the 2.0.3 binary packages rebuilt. The issues are generic with the Ports tree and not specific to Snort. It could be later this weekend or even early next week before the 2.0.3 binaries get rebuilt. If you have a 2.1 install, you are golden because the PBI packages are good to go.
If you want the new Snort GUI fixes, then go ahead and reinstall the Snort package now. Just click the PKG or XML icons. They both will do the same thing in terms of reinstalling the GUI PHP code. I will post back later when the new Snort binaries for 2.0.3 pfSense are built and posted.

Yeah, I think maybe those rebuild overnight. I will e-mail the Core Team guys and have one of them check it out. The new binary is not a huge deal, but if you use the SMTP preprocessor and sometimes saw the message about "SMTP: changing file_depth requires a restart", then the updated binary will fix that (and allow Snort to soft-restart correctly).
It won't hurt anything to do a package reinstall by clicking the PKG or XML icon, then later when the new binary is posted you can do the remove and re-install then. The major bug fixes and new features are all in the GUI code anyway.
