-Packages may take post-install actions by including a .bat file in the /etc/postinstall directory as part of the package.  The filename should be named etc/postinstall/<package>.bat.  The bat file will be run with the environment variables OSGEO4W_STARTMENU, OSGEO4W_DESKTOP_LINKS, OSGEO4W_MENU_LINKS, OSGEO4W_HOME, and OSGEO4W_HOME_MSYS defined, and with OSGEO4W_HOME/bin already in the path.
