Thunderbird and Firefox dead after portupgrade

[Graham North]

Hi Yuan:
I did not pose a question. My suggestion to do a rehash was in response 
to someone else having trouble after upgrading Firefox.
It may or may not have been a great suggestion but that is all it was. 
If you have a good understanding of that command and why it may or may 
not be appropriate then I would be open ears. One of my friends who runs 
Debian tells me that he finds it necessary after doing software upgrades 
- yes I know that is a different OS.

But sincerely, if you or someone else on this list has a good 
understanding of its function please enlighten, I love to learn.
Thanks, Graham/
