Bug 250781: www/firefox: not started without openh264 installed
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=250781



--- Description ---
The latest firefox hangs on first launch if the openh264 is not installed. This
only happens for newly created users who have not yet created a profile in the
directory ~/.mozilla/firefox/. This happens with me and with the latest
firefox-esr. If I install openh264 package, then the firefox or firefox-esr
starts normally. I use latest packages on FreeBSD 12.1/12.2 with KDE Plasma5.
