You should use the "notes" command in the main part of the portfile, rather
than using ui_msgs in a post-activate block. Also, don't surround the notes
with ASCII art; just write the paragraph(s) of text.
Changes to the notes or the activate or deactivate phases aren't seen by users
unless you increase the revision (because MacPorts uses the Portfile that was
recorded in the registry at install time, not the Portfile in the ports tree).
