Where could I find the structure of an installed port?

I am trying to take an existing binary install and make it appear as an 
installed package to facilitate uninstall.

It is the FreePascal install script. Although we have a a port, it usually 
is behind. 

The existing script basically just untars some binaries to a user 
selected directory.
