Guys, thanks for your help. I've managed to adjust user's homedir
using pkg-install script. Now I'll try to move everything writable
from /usr/local to /var (as Miroslav suggested), test and submit the new
port version.
I think you should do what makes sense for your application. The /var/db
stuff is not a hard fast rule and it doesn't work well for many
situations. Also it's mostly system related DB's that live there. It's
not only some java related ports that live mostly under /usr but also
things like postgres(at least used to).
Databases (Postgres) are mess. MySQL, CouchDB, Elasticsearch and others
are using /var/db prefix, PostgreSQL and some others are using
/usr/local. It is very inconsistent...
