Since nobody else seems to have read this message properly (or I'm being
stupid - always possible) - you start by sending a patch to the
maintainer. More information on updating ports is available in the
archives of this list and on the OpenBSD site.

Of course, good advice was already provided for installing Firefox from
ports, but that's 1.5.0.5 presently.

No, the easiest way is like so:

$ man pkg_add
[...]

$ ftp ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/ftplist
[choose a mirror]
$ export PKG_PATH="ftp://your.mirror.com/pub/OpenBSD/$(sysctl -n 
kern.version)/packages/$(machine)/"
$ sudo pkg_add -i your-package

2006-08-03 Thread David T Harris
The easiest way to install firefox on OpenBSD
or any other package (that is available from
OpenBSD) is to download the package from
the OpenBSD website (or a mirror) or the
ftp mirrors.

Then just 'su -" to become root and then
'pkg_add '
