oops, my bad
11.4-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 11.4-RELEASE-p3 #0: Tue Sep  1 08:22:33 UTC 2020     root at amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64

grep url /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf
   url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/quarterly",
I don't understand the pkg+ part of that.

If I look at the page for node14:
   https://www.freshports.org/www/node14/#
It shows:
Runtime dependencies:

         ca_root_nss>=0 : security/ca_root_nss

Library dependencies:

         libbrotlidec.so : archivers/brotli
         libcares.so : dns/c-ares
         libuv.so : devel/libuv
         libnghttp2.so : www/libnghttp2
         libicui18n.so : devel/icu

If I do:
   pkg info -d firefox | grep -E "ca_root|brotlidec|cares|libuv|nghttp2|icui18n"
it shows nothing.  Same for each of the other packages noted for deletion.
So I don't understand why it will be deleted.
