I'm trying to update firefox on my system but can't update it or even delete
it. I get this result on pkg delete (for example):
root at tavion:1 /usr/ports/www/firefox> pkg delete firefox
firefox-51.0.1_1,1 is locked and may not be modified
Checking integrity... done (0 conflicting)
Package(s) not found!
Now, I suspect that I am the one responsible for 'locking' it a few months
back when I didn't want to inavertantly update it. Unfortunately I can't
recall what I might have done to lock it (memory isn't what it used to be).
Can someone shed some light on where/what this lock may be?
Thanks,
Bob
