--- Comment #5 from Jan Beich <jbeich at FreeBSD.org> ---
Backporting FF57 security fixes was a bit time-consuming, so I'm not gonna
repeat that. To stay on 56.* for whatever reason try

  $ cd /usr/ports
  $ svn copy www/firefox at 454192 www/firefox56
  $ echo 'PKGNAMESUFFIX=56' >>www/firefox56/Makefile.local
  $ pkg set -n firefox:firefox56
  $ pkg set -o www/firefox:www/firefox56

Note, Mk/bsd.gecko.mk will probably support Firefox < 59 until www/firefox-esr
switches to 59.1.0
