Hi all,
After my misadventure trying to install bleeding edge ports off the git
repository instead of from the snapshot labelled "release", I've been
able to clean up and get things back into a sane state.
Many thanks to those who helped.
So now I'm using pkg_add to install prebuilt packages, and today,
noticed there was one for `midori`. I'd prefer Firefox, but I'll pick
my battles: firefox on MIPS has always been a challenge, and one I can
deal with another day. (Used to maintain Firefox on Gentoo/MIPS.)
I note there are two flavours of midori, gtk2 and gtk3. I'm not fussy
which, but I notice neither seems to be installable:
RC=0 zhouman ~ $ pkg_add midori
quirks-2.241 signed on 2016-08-23T22:02:59Z
Ambiguous: choose package for midori
a 0: <None>
1: midori-0.5.11
2: midori-0.5.11-gtk3
Your choice: 2

Can't install gstreamer1-plugins-libav-1.8.2: not found
Other webkit-based browsers seem to be similarly affected. They fail
installing because there's no gstreamer1-plugins-libav package
available. `surf` was another I tried, with identical results. It's as
if the package went AWOL, because it clearly had to have built for
midori and surf to be built.
Does anyone happen to know what happened to those binaries?

I haven't lost my mind...
...it's backed up on a tape somewhere.
