 | Pete,
 | 
 | I am not sure I understand. The link is static, why should it move from
 | the tarball (or Makefile) into a script run at install time?
 | 
 | Could you elaborate what you want done and why? We'll certainly come to
 | terms somehow.
 
 We still need to make the link in the Makefile, but instead of simply
 including the symlink'd file in pkg-plist we need to use @exec to make
 the symlink (so when someone runs pkg_add db42.tbz, they end up with
 symlinks in the right spot).
 
 See the archivers/unzip port for an example.
