pkg_preinst    The commands in this function are run just prior to merging
               a package image into the file system.

pkg_postinst   The commands in this function are run just following
               merging a package image into the file system.

pkg_prerm      The commands in this function are run just prior to
               unmerging a package image from the file system.

pkg_postrm     The commands in this function are run just following
               unmerging a package image from the file system.
