Hello. My wife would like to convert her ancient laptop to NetBSD.
Now, I'm looking at the pkgsrc tree, as of 2006Q3, and I see that firefox
is in there, but the version is 1.5.0.7,
but that this version has several security holes. What are others doing to
get graphical browsers under NetBSD? Do folks just not use the pkgsrc tree
to build a browser, or must I update my pkgsrc tree to the absolutely
latest of the moment to get the current firefox browser?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
-thanks
