From pkg_create(1) manual page:
@dirrm name
Declare directory name to be deleted at deinstall
time. By de- fault, directories created by a package
installation are not deleted when the package is
deinstalled; this provides an explic- it directory
cleanup method. This directive should appear at the
end of the package list. If more than one @dirrm
directives are used, the directories are removed in
the order specified. The name directory will not be
removed unless it is empty.
Hence,
@cwd /
@dirrm /var/db/myappdbs
Put those 2 babies at the end of your PLIST. cwd is necessary
because dirrm is relative to the current directory.
You also might consider reading the porters handbook. :)
