>Description:
running 'make package' in www/bluefish fails with:

/usr/bin/install -c -o root -g wheel -d -m 755  /usr/pkg/share/applications
/usr/bin/install -c -o root -g wheel -m 644 bluefish.desktop /usr/pkg/share/applications
/usr/pkg/bin/update-desktop-database
No directories in update-desktop-database search path could be processed and updated.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Someone needs to fix bluefish install procedure, so that instead of running:
/usr/pkg/bin/update-desktop-database
it runs:
/usr/pkg/bin/update-desktop-database /usr/pkg/share/applications

Creating the following directories will stop 'update-desktop-database' from failing and complete package installation

# mkdir -p /usr/share/applications
# mkdir -p /usr/local/share/applications

after package has been built, you can remove those directories
