Since Hypermail doesn't create share/apache and share/apache/htdocs, it
should not remove them.
Furthermore, Hypermail should be installing its HTML and CGI into
${PREFIX}/share/hypermail, in order to keep things nicely separated. (After
all, what if someone's not using Apache?)
It should also display a pkg-message informing people that they have to copy
the files into their document/CGI webspaces in order to use Hypermail. (If
anything, this could be construed as a security feature.)
I would also recommend that HAS_CONFIGURE=yes be changed to
GNU_CONFIGURE=yes, and that CONFIGURE_ARGS be changed to CONFIGURE_ARGS
+= --with-httpddir=${PREFIX}/share/hypermail
(When GNU_CONFIGURE is set, CONFIGURE_ARGS already has the PREFIX stuff, as
well as a whole host of other niceties.)
