*Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek* !!!! Never mind, gotta give it the full pathname:

[root at kabini1, /etc, 7:39:49am] 371 % pkg add 
/var/cache/pkg/firefox-47.0.1_2,1.txz
Installing firefox-47.0.1_2,1...
Extracting firefox-47.0.1_2,1: 100%
Message from firefox-47.0.1_2,1:
======================================================================

smb:// issues (Gvfs/GIO option):
Network group, machine, and share browsing does not work correctly.

sftp:// (Gvfs/GIO option):
Only sftp access using public key authentication works.  To easily
setup public key authentication to "remote_host":

ssh-keygen
cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh remote_host "cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys"

The SSH server on remote_host must allow pub key authentication.

Any bug reports should be addressed to the maintainers at:
         gecko at FreeBSD.org

* Output from 'uname -a'.
* Output from 'ident /usr/ports/www/firefox/Makefile'
* Where/when did the problem occur: configuring, building, or
         running firefox
* How can you reproduce the problem?

Thank you for your help in testing and reporting bugs, and we hope you
enjoy using Firefox.
