Thanks Solene,
I did pkg_add -u && pkg_add firefox and it still failed. At one point the -u complains of a "loop" and asks me if I want to proceed anyway [n,y,a] so I select "a". After completion pkg_add -u the pkg_add firefox still fails. You pointed out that you don't see atk-1, and I see that I am confusing the contents of the package with the pkg_name. So that's one step. Now if I just try to install atk I get: farm# pkg_add atk quirks-3.187 signed on 2020-05-19T14:41:48Z Can't install atk-2.32.0 because of libraries |library glib-2.0.4201.2 not found | /usr/local/lib/libglib-2.0.so.4200.6 (.libs-glib2-2.54.3p1): bad major | /usr/local/lib/libglib-2.0.so.4201.0 (glib2-2.56.3p0): minor is too small |library gobject-2.0.4200.9 not found so then if I try to install glib I get: farm# pkg_add glib quirks-3.187 signed on 2020-05-19T14:41:48Z Can't find glib Obsolete package: glib (outdated and/or no longer required by other ports) So it this a dead end? And maybe I have to at least try to update to 6.6 stable? I agree that these steps are a kind of a resistance to just going to 6.7, but the failure patterns are instructive to learning useful lessons, so that's why I think they are of some value. And maybe some value for others who scan the list for explanations.
