Trying to make in -current ports I get error:

Missing library for ldns=0.0

Where do I get that?

Update your full ports tree, and the pkg_* tools.

8.0 is in the process of being updated by nigel@, see his emails to
ports@ in last two weeks or so. Tests and feedback is welcome from
those running current. Most current port for firefox 8.0 can be found
at www.github.com/jasperla/openbsd-wip/

I use xxxterm too (as well as scrotwm as my WM) but I need some of
the add-ons that are offered on Firefox not elsewhere on any other
browser

Which version of Firefox most secure?

2011-11-19 Thread James Hozier
In both the Packages list (for 5.0) and Ports, there are various
different versions of Firefox, such as 3.5.xx, 3.6.xx, 7.x.xx, etc.,
all seemingly separately maintained software for each of these.

Is there a version that is considered more safe/secure to use since
there are several different options of which version one can choose?

3.4.xx because of JRE
3.6.xx because last supported version of 3.x line from Mozilla
7.x.xx actual stable from Mozilla
