That is surprising, now that you mention it.

Thanks for checking.  That makes sense.  I'll try it.  I should have looked
there already.

I still doubt/wonder about building firefox (today, not in the past) under
pkgsrc-2015Q4.  It appears broken and that brokeness appears to extend to
the FTP site and thus to pkgin as well.  Just wondering how we got to a
pkgsrc-2015Q4 stable freeze with a busted firefox build.  So, I figure it's
got to be on my end, but then there's the "Why isn't it on the FTP site,
then?" Those are auto-built, I believe.  That leads me to speculate that the
build server is having the same build-failure for firefox as I am.

Perhaps there is some problem with dependencies and I need to rebuild them
all?  Anyone know if there is a pkgsrc keyword to do this ?  Make replace
perhaps (or does that just rebuild the current package) ?

Thanks,
