CONF_FILES should point to PKG_SYSCONFDIR as target.
Of course, the program should be fixed to look for its config
file(s) there too.

I'd prefer
	${INSTALL_DATA_DIR} ${PREFIX}/share/examples/oak
to the INSTALLATION_DIRS line.

patch-ab, ac: use sizeof(buffer)-1 instead of the hardwired sizes
in the strncpy, and NUL-terminate the buffers manually. Or use
strlcpy.

patch-ad: you could put the file in files/ and install it in
the post-install step too -- that'd make editing it easier
(I have some ideas on how to improve it).

Cheers,
 Thomas
