Hello all

I am running several FreeBSD 8/9 systems on a nfsroot, and it seems
firefox 3.6.9 (sqllite rather)
has issues accessing bookmarks, history and other things unless the
/var/lib/nfs path exists.

firefox 3.6.9 on NFSroot  you must:
mkdir -p /var/lib/nfs

I found details here
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+bug/237970

Since this simple fix works, and firefox is a popular port
I was wondering how would we go about making this path exist by default?

I dont know much about this, but if several ports need this path then maybe we
could have the installworld script add mkdir -p /var/lib/nfs ?

or perhaps just have the firefox port add the path?
maybe there is yet another way to achieve this...

the end goal here is to make this work by default the way it now does
on ubuntu / debian

comments welcome
