Please see Bug 213857 for details, discussion and a fix, the issue is
the same as it was for the databases/influxdb port, which is now fixed.

This same problem report also applies to www/grafana2 (do I need
to open a separate PR for that port?)


Using grafana3-3.1.1_1 on 11.0-RELEASE

A directory /var/run/grafana3 is assumed to exist at the grafana3 service
start time (to receive its pid file), yet the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/grafana3
startup script does not insure existence of this directory.
Instead, it relies on the package installation to create it.

This results in an grafana3 service failing to start if /var/run
is cleaned at machine boot time, or if it resides on an ephemeral
file system (like tmpfs), which is re-created at boot time.

Reliance on the installation script to create a directory on /var/run
is unlike most other ports, which populate the /var/run with whatever
they need during service startup time.

Please update the 'www/grafana3' port so that its
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/grafana3 script will create /var/run/grafana3
directory (if missing) at service startup time.
