Description Bryan Stine (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

net-firewall/psad has historically done a config file update to set the system's hostname in psad.conf, which occurs in src_install. This should be done in pkg_preinst such that binary packages do not use the build host's hostname in the default config.

Steps to reproduce:
1. binpkg net-firewall/psad
2. ????
3. MONETARY LOSS!
