You should also believe that many people don't read any of the man pages, after seeing a web page with a couple of commands to get started they then only remember one command to build new pkg's and ignore all the other options that may be available. As you said "one has limit or no influence over the question" I assumed you had no knowledge of controlling port options in poudriere. That assumption shows in my wording. >> >> OPTIONS_UNSET= PULSEAUDIO >> www_firefox_UNSET= PULSEAUDIO >> www_firefox_FORCE_UNSET= PULSEAUDIO >> >> See /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.options.mk for info on controlling port options >> in make.conf > > The question was not how to set these options, but why PULSEAUDIO > defaulted to ON.

After firefox is updated you can remove the options to disable pulseaudio. My suggestion is only about providing a solution that works now until a better update is available. -- FreeBSD - the place to B...Software Developing Shane Ambler
