I'm not using any extensions, but all my regular web sites and whatever
else I do with FF works with this 1.5.0.1 update (on i386.)
However, I came across something that might be a bug in pkg_add(1). On a
different -current box I attempted to upgrade Firefox with ``pkg_add
-u''. Not deleting the original 1.5p3 package on the FTP server, this
resulted in the following:
$ sudo pkg_add -u
[...]
Candidates for updating mozilla-firefox-1.5p3 -> mozilla-firefox-1.5p3
mozilla-firefox-1.5.0.1
Ambiguous: mozilla-firefox-1.5p3 could be mozilla-firefox-1.5.0.1
mozilla-firefox-1.5p3
[...]
Use of uninitialized value in join or string at /usr/sbin/pkg_add line 891.
Running the equivalent of pkg_add -r mozilla-1.7.12p9
$
The due update of mozilla did not attempt to start at all (it should at
least have gotten to where it refuses to update due to potentially
unsafe operations without -F update.) Considering the warning, I am
however glad that it silently stopped. ;-)
After moving the mozilla-firefox-1.5p3 package out of the way, the
update completed successfully with -F update. This issue might be
relevant for -stable updates that bump entire version numbers in this
manner as -release packages stay on the servers.
