Greetings... I was running portupgrade on libxul and noticed it depends on Firefox 3.x. I cancelled the upgrade, because I thought FF3.x was insecure and therefore deprecated while FF7 was recommended and secure. My questions: 1) is the dependency libxul has for FF3 a security problem? 2) is the dependency on FF3 a bug in libxul? If it is a bug, who should receive a report: gecko@ or the Mozilla project? FYI: I'm pretty sure it was portsclean -D (and not me) that deleted FF3...yet libxul tried to pull it in during the portupgrade. Best regards, Joe
