12 You have to patch that part out and make sure you can produce the same
13 effect during pkg_postinst() and also reverse the effect when you do
14 pkg_postrm() (if possible.) You need to test it pretty well to make sure
15 pkg_postinst() and pkg_postrm() works as expected, esp in regards
16 prefixing paths with ${ROOT} when writing files, etc.
