Here is rough cut of something that implements what Frederick suggests.
We add something like the following to the package INSTALL scripts (the
template is in pkgsrc/mk/install/install):
RCD_SCRIPTS="$*"		# this is automatically set in the script
RCD_SCRIPTS_DIR="/etc/rc.d"	# this is automatically set in the script
rc_pkg_conf=/etc/defaults/rc.pkg.conf
eval set -- ${RCD_SCRIPTS}
while [ $# -gt 0 ]
do
 script=${RCD_SCRIPTS_DIR}/1ドル; shift
 if [ -x $script ]; then
 rcvar=`( $script rcvar 2>/dev/null ) | \
 grep "=" | sed "s/^\$\([^=]*\)=.*/1円/"`
 if [ -n "${rcvar}" ]
 then
 touch $rc_pkg_conf
 if ! grep -q "^$rcvar=" $rc_pkg_conf
 then
 echo $rcvar=NO >> $rc_pkg_conf
 fi
 fi
 fi
done
This fragment asks each rc.d script that is installed by the package what
it's rcvar is (some scripts don't have one, e.g. net/samba/files/samba.sh
and sysutils/ups-nut/files/ups.sh) and appends a "foo=NO" to rc.pkg.conf
if a value isn't already present.
We can have similar code the DEINSTALL script to remove the lines from
$rc_pkg_conf when a package is deinstalled.
