as i was waking up this morning, the thought that i could just as easily 
re-run the portupgrade firefox command that produced the error 
occurred... so i was delighted to see garrett cooper's recommendation 
to do so, further along in this digest. (Message 15. thanks garrett!)

HTH. apologies if i've padded out this too much. i have virtually no 
idea what any of the stuff that fills the screen for 13:48 minutes 
means.

i'm still interested in learning where the system might be storing those 
screensfull, if at all, for future reference.

still true this morning, obviously. although Yuan Jue's message 
[Message: 6] suggests a possible workaround... thanks Yuan!

without your message, i wouldn't have noticed nspr needs updating on my 
pkg_version listing. what does it do? i'll try updating it and see what 
happens. 

thanks again.
