I have one written but I need to know if I am deinstalling a port
or a package.  The pkg-install script will install a file if it
does not exist, the pkg-deinstall script will need to know if that
file has changed before it just blindly removes it.  The file gets
written out differently if you do 'pkg_add' vs 'make install'

To solve this, I was going to do this:

pre-deinstall:
      PKG_PREFIX=${PREFIX} PKG_MGR=FreeBSD::Ports ${SH} $ 
{PKGDEINSTALL} ${PKGNAME} DEINSTALL

So the pkg-deinstall script looks at PKG_MGR and if it is not set,
then it assumes the string "FreeBSD::Packages".  That string winds
up in a file that is not being removed from the tinderbox, because
the old code sees they are different.
