The scala tarball doesn't extract into a new subdirectory and instead

So in work/, you see a bin/ and a share/ directory.
Is there an easy, clean way to deal with this in MacPorts? I looked
at specifying some extract options, but I didn't see anything. I
tried passing the ${distname} to tar -C's option to create the
subdirectory, but this doesn't work, since the directory to put it in
doesn't exist yet.
You could create the subdirectory in pre-extract and then do the above.
Thanks, that did the trick. Reading portfile and looking through the
source, I didn't see that option.
