What's the difference between using Poudriere or Synth, though?

This is a clean system, I can't imagine a jail being cleaner... it was unpacked 
from the DVD the day before yesterday....

Also, how do you run PGO (profile-guided optimizations) while building in a 
jail?  You need a running X server and access to it for that....

This doesn't make sense...  Firefox, or any software, should build just fine on 
my system as it is...  Everything else does, so why not Firefox?  Like...  I 
don't see why you recommend those third-party software...

If you were trying to brush me off, I think that's just too low...

Damn, guys...  I'm going to try with Synth...

Howcome it's the first time I hear about this process/procedure..?  I don't 
remember anyone ever recommending this, or even talking about this, much less 
the handbook or any manual page recommending this process of building in a 
clean environment using a helper...

Not fair...  ._.

Anyway, I'll let you know how it goes....

Make sure you build your ports using poudriere or synth. Using
non-clean room build systems will usually result in a lot of lost time
trying to figure out which of your installed ports breaks your current
build.

Cheers.

Hi!

Use poudriere to build firefox, then 'pkg add' that locally-build firefox
package.
