Remove the deinstall script that appears to be deleting all the temporary files

created by pkg(8) during upgrades It happens because the deinstall script tries to clean up the potential manual VM registration by cleaning out all symlinks to bin/javavm Given all VM are registring/unregistering themselves this part is not needed The other thing the script was doing handling the configuration which has been replaced by @sample. pkg-install has been modified to drop the handling of the configuration file but keep the auto registration if all VM found. While this part is not necessary as well, we keep it because otherwise anyone doing delete/install on javavmwapper version 2.5 being the installed version would end up with all VM unregistered. The pkg-install should be removed after EOL of FreeBSD 10.3 PR: 210313 MFH: 2016Q3

allow the simple use of multiple VMs. Brief detail of the main changes: . When a VM is registered, symbolic links for its executables are created in ${LOCALBASE}/bin. This allows people to just type 'java', 'javac', etc. without having to add the VM installation directory to their PATH. . The actual 'java' that is executed via one of these symlinks is determined by the order of the (sorted) configuration file ${LOCALBASE}/etc/javavms and by the environment variables JAVA_VERSION, JAVA_OS and JAVA_VENDOR which function to select a VM as they do in the ports framework. . There is a new command, checkvms, to sanity check the configuration and symlinks. . The "javavm" executable is currently retained in its original capacity as a synonym for Java for backward compatibility. However, its use is deprecated. . Temporarily set MAINTAINER to myself to make monitoring any initial bug reports easier. The intent is to convert it to java@ at a later date. This is built on the ideas of znerd, hq and Shelton C.
