It's not using the firefox2 executable, but for gecko support. You will need to rebuild each port from which you want to remove the dependency. Some time soon, the Makefile support will change to using www/libxul instead of its current system. If you want to make an equivalent change before then, you can put WITH_GECKO=libxul in your make.conf and rebuild the dependent ports. See bsd.gecko.mk for more information, or just keep an eye on it to see when the changes come into the tree. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Removing firefox-2.0.0.20_9,1 from system
I recently installed openoffice.org-3.1.0_2 on my system. For some reason it brought in firefox-2 also. I all ready had Firefox-3.5 installed. I do not want or need two different installations of Firefox on my system. Firefox-2 appears to be required by these programs. /var/db/pkg $ pkg_info -R firefox-2.0.0.20_9,1 Information for firefox-2.0.0.20_9,1: Required by: gegl-0.0.22_6 gimp-2.6.6,2 gimp-app-2.6.6_3,1 gimp-gutenprint-5.1.7_2 gimp-help-2.4.2_1 librsvg2-2.26.0_1 I am not sure why these programs require Firefox-2 since Firefox-3.5 was installed prior to their installation. Is there any way I can safely remove Firefox-2 and force the use of Firefox-3.5 instead without breaking anything? -- Jerry ges...@yahoo.com Harp not on that string.

Given the above, it should be affected. Reading the original documents it
doesn't show. And I can't find anywhere that firefox 2 is End of Life.

If that's ancient, you should do a find /usr/ports -name Makefile -exec ident
{} +|grep ' 200[67]/'.
