No, it's not about the package cluster. The plist is incomplete,
that's the simplest/stupidest way to deal with 3 dozen important
data files in different dirs.
I wish there was some way to leverage the file checksums in
the package database and tell pkg_delete (and pkg_deinstall,
too) not to remove any modified files unless the user has very
specifically told otherwise. AFAIK there isn't. I guess I'll have
to do it manually (in pkg-<scripts>). I haven't done it yet, but
I felt it was not _that_ important. Warnings are in place,
package building is denied.
If you can't look at it without remorse, shoot me, mark it
broken, delete it, whatever. I still can't see what's itching so
bad.
