Firefox needs git?  from the above list... /usr/ports/devel/git

http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/xsoft/firefox.html


      Firefox Dependencies


        Required

alsa-lib-1.1.2 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/multimedia/alsa-lib.html>, 
Autoconf-2.13 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/general/autoconf213.html>, 
GTK+-3.20.9 <http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/x/gtk3.html>; 
(or GTK+-2.24.30 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/x/gtk2.html>; if you change 
the mozconfig where indicated), NSS-3.26 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/postlfs/nss.html>, 
UnZip-6.0 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/general/unzip.html>, 
yasm-1.3.0 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/general/yasm.html>, and 
Zip-3.0 <http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/general/zip.html>;


        Recommended

ICU-57.1 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/general/icu.html>, 
libevent-2.0.22 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/basicnet/libevent.html>, 
libvpx-1.6.0 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/multimedia/libvpx.html>, 
and SQLite-3.14.1 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/server/sqlite.html>;

[Note]


      Note

If you don't install recommended dependencies, then internal copies of 
those packages will be used. They might be tested to work, but they can 
be out of date or contain security holes.

[Note]


      Note

With Firefox-31.0 and later versions, you must have installed Openssl 
before Python 2 or the build system will quickly fail with output 
including "ImportError: cannot import name HTTPSHandler". If you are in 
any doubt about this (e.g. upgrading from an older version of Firefox), 
check if |/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_ssl.so| exists. If it does 
not, reinstall Python-2.7.12 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/general/python2.html>; 
(after installing OpenSSL-1.0.2h 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/postlfs/openssl.html>). 
The latest version of any /currently maintained/ version of Openssl 
should be satisfactory if already installed.


        Optional

cURL-7.50.1 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/basicnet/curl.html>, 
dbus-glib-0.106

Doxygen-1.8.11 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/general/doxygen.html>, 
GConf-3.2.6 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/gnome/GConf.html>, 
FFmpeg-3.1.3 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/multimedia/ffmpeg.html>; 
(runtime), libwebp-0.5.1 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/general/libwebp.html>, 
OpenJDK-1.8.0.102 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/general/openjdk.html>, 
PulseAudio-9.0 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/multimedia/pulseaudio.html>, 
startup-notification-0.12 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/x/startup-notification.html>, 
Valgrind-3.11.0 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/general/valgrind.html>, 
Wget-1.18 
<http://linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/basicnet/wget.html>, 
Wireless Tools-29

<http://sourceforge.net/projects/liboauth/files/>, and libproxy 
<https://github.com/libproxy/libproxy>, Rust
