I have not updated OpenIndian for some time (/etc/release says 2020.10). Using 'pkg update -rnv' I see reasonable output except for this output (simplified) which causes concern:

Changed mediators:
  mediator firefox:
           version: 60 (system default) -> None

  mediator thunderbird:
           version: 52 (system default) -> None

I am worried that the above means that after an upgrade, there will be no firefox or thunderbird available. Presumably I could then manually install them.

My assumption regarding the meaning of 'Changed mediators' may be totally incorrect.

Using 'pkg mediator' I see this relevant output:

MEDIATOR            VER. SRC. VERSION IMPL. SRC. IMPLEMENTATION
firefox             system    60      system
thunderbird         system    52      system

Will everything just be ok or is there a way to influence the mediators in advance such that firefox and thunderbird will be installed with the latest version?
