Or, I've been told, using portinstall -N when installing new ports also takes care of problems such as this. >=20 > % uname -a > FreeBSD masaka.moolenaar.net 4.8-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE #1: Mon Oct = 27 21:44:22 CET 2003 mool@masaka.moolenaar.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/MAS= AKA i386 >=20 > BTW: It's not easy to decide which version to build.

The mozilla* ports themselves are pretty straightforward. mozilla is the latest stable release whereas mozilla-devel is the latest bleeding-edge release (currently obsolete until 1.7a comes out). These are native FreeBSD browsers, and as such, may not support all of the plug-ins that their Linux counterparts do. Therefore, if you need some of the more advanced Linux plug-ins with your browser, you should consider installing the Linux versions of Mozilla or Netscape 7.
