Hi! Thank a lot for taking the time to answer my question.
After reading your email carefully, I am embarrassed to say that the problem was that some binary packages on my system was not updated because I simply ran a "pkg install firefox" when firefox reemerged in the repository after being absent for a few days last week, forgetting to upgrade the other packages at the same time. Sorry for bothering you with this newbee-error, at least I learned a lot more about pkg and where the package-repository actually is located. Also I got impressed by getting help from the firefox-porters! :) Keep up the good work, I love having Firefox available on FreeBSD!
