Is staging a port really this simple?

When converting a port to staging, you generally end up deleting
post-install targets like the above.  You only need
diskcheckd.conf.sample in the staging area (and hence in the generated
package).  It's the @sample business in pkg-plist (or the equivalent
@exec statements) which will perform this action when the package is
finally installed on your system.
