Is

installed:
	@if pkg_info -e ${PKGNAME}; then			\	
		${ECHO_MSG} "===> ${PKGNAME} is installed.";	\
	else							\
		${ECHO_MSG} "===> ${PKGNAME} is not installed.";\
	fi

what you want from "make installed"?  (e.g. are you asking for 'pkg_info -c'
because it displays the COMMENT file, or because it tells you if it's not
installed?)
