still working my way through the YP docs and, in dev manual, 3.3.19,
"Post-Installation Scripts", one reads the final note:

"Equivalent support for pre-install, pre-uninstall, and post-uninstall
scripts exist by way of pkg_preinst, pkg_prerm, and pkg_postrm,
respectively. These scrips work in exactly the same way as does
pkg_postinst with the exception that they run at different times.
Also, because of when they run, they are not applicable to being run
at image creation time like pkg_postinst."

  i'm confused ... why would a pkg_preinst script not be applicable to
being run at image creation time? or am i misreading that?

  i'll probably have more questions about these scripts as i dig
further into them.
