Before installing mozilla-firefox, running ./out-of-date
showed nothing needing updating. I had installed the normal
programs I use here at home. Pine, fetchmail, gnupg, gpgme,
cvsup, mergemaster. No problems. I installed obsd 3.8 release
off the cd along with src, sys, XF4, ports. Then did a cvsup
to a local backup drive (complete tree), cd into /usr/src,
ran `cvs -d$CVSROOT -rOPENBSD_3_8 up -Pd', did the same for
/usr/ports & /usr/XF4, rebuilt kernel & installed & rebooted
(everything worked ok), rebuilt userland making sure /usr/obj
was clean & running beforehand the usual `cd /usr/src/etc &&
env DESTDIR=/ make distrib-dirs' & after running `cd
/usr/src/usr.sbin/httpd && make -f Makefile.bsd-
wrapper distribution' & then mergemaster, rebuilt /usr/XF4,
everything still okay up to installing mozilla-firefox package.
I haven't been building ports as I have no particular special
needs to build in, just installing packages with
`pkg_add ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/3.8/packages/i386/prog.tgz'.
The same thing had happened previously when I had installed fluxbox.
Blackbox didn't give the same problem, but now mozilla-firefox is.
Here's uname -a output:
It is possible for packages to lag behind ports. Packages are slanted
towards -release, not -stable or -current, IIRC.
Anyway, just build Firefox from source if you want 1.0.6p4.

Thanks, Joachim. Now I remember reading the lag thing. Sorry
for the bother. Unistalled the package, ran ./out-of-date &
no more problem. Built firefox from ports, reran ./out-of-date
& once again, no more problems. Much appreciated.
