I think pkgsrc/www/firefox/ needs a MESSAGE box.

I've just found that I've lost my stored password cache.

It may be because a Mozilla recommended (on their website) phase of running
as root to cut over stored configuration info didn't work properly. 

Also, my bookmarks import appears to have lost some stuff.

its a nice release, and nobody in Mozilla guarantees its safe to move between
versions, but this is the first really visible stuffup during an upgrade of
mozilla/firefox I've seen in a while.

be warned..

cheers
