It's possible that Firefox had been linked against the jpeg
library you had installed before the upgrade. Upgrading
Firefox now should fix this.

Maybe the same reason. Can you start it from a terminal session
and show the error message? Please do the same with Firefox to
check missing library dependencies.

See above.

Yes, really seems to be the jpeg library.

As it looks to me, you upgraded the jpeg library to a newer
version (to fulfill a requirement of OpenOffice), but the
applications you have installed still require the older
library that doesn't exist anymore on your system.

To fix this, either re-install the older library version
(this is what you surely do NOT want because of OpenOffice),
or upgrade all applications that depend on the jpeg library.
Tools like portmaster or portupgrade can help you with this,
so you don't need to upgrade everything manually.
