 I think neither the port is a new installer nor it modifies the Software,
 and I think pkg-install script in your patch modifies the installed file.
 This is my opinion as the port maintainer.

 Why do you force me on your idea?  I do not like using
 pkg-install/pkg-deinstall to install the desktop entry
 in the master port, and I think it should be done by using
 symlink or so in another port (print/acroreadwrapper or new one),
 or something like acroreadwrapper's --install-plugin option.
 We also have to consider mixing of version 7.0.5 and 7.0.1.

 I can understand installing the desktop entry and the icon file
 is a good thing (IIRC, netchild@, mezz@, and I discussed this
 topic before), but at least I have not approved your patch and
 do not accept the installation/deinstallation scripts you committed.
