I have been looking for a silver bullet that avoids having (a) something in the post-install target plus an @exec and an @unexec and thus redundancy, or (b) two extra scripts and thus two extra files in the port. Alas, I failed at that, and Emanuel convinced me that apparently there is no way to avoid one of these two deaths. That looks like a nice project for someone to improve our general infrastructure along these lines.

How to best run a script post installation _and_ deinstallation?
Trying to implement the final steps in addressing PR 155568: "bsd.gcc.mk:
Fixing dependency not to pick ccache stubs" which I have been working on
with Emanuel, I'd like to invoke a script after a port/package has been
installed and again after it has been deinstalled.
The naive approach below works for installation:
Index: Makefile
===
< post-install:
---
> post-install: ccache-update
181a182,186

It does not cover de-installation which raises two questions:
1. Why don't we have a post-deinstall target?
2. How is the task best accomplished?
