>Description:
The firefox-bin and firefox-gtk2-bin packages are out of date.
This might not be so serious by itself, but there are security
advisories out against both packages. Furthermore, as far as
I know those are the only browsers for NetBSD for which one can
obtain a 'flash' plug-i.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/pkgsrc
cvs -q update -P -d
cd www/firefox-bin
make install
>Fix:
package up a newer version of firefox
