I've been working on a port update and happened to notice that when I installed an updated package the entries under the Applications menu on my desktop were not getting updated. Looking at /usr/ports/Mk/Uses/desktop-file-utils.mk, I see that it adds "@desktop-file-utils" to PLIST_FILES, and I do see this in .PLIST.mktmp when I build the port. I don't see it in the +MANIFEST file in the package .txz file. Digging through the source for pkg, I don't see anything in the code for handling @desktop-file-utils. Something else that I don't see in the source for pkg is anything that handles @rmtry, which INSTALL_ICONS wants to add to the plist. Neither of these @things is documented in pkg-create(8). Reading this man page, I see that @exec and @unexec are deprecated, and these are used fairly heavily in the ports framework.
