Mozilla Firefox - anyone succeeded in installing?

[Ted Mittelstaedt]

firefox is one of those programs that you need a current ports tree.

When I'm installing a system that I want to run firefox on, what I do is
I install the release, WITHOUT xorg, and without ports, then cvsup ports,
then compile xorg, then compile firefox.
