Is it possible to fix this?
Thanks
Until it gets fixed (ie firefox updated to firefox3) just install
/usr/ports/www/firefox3, and it'll work fine.
No, that won't help with miro.
I am running miro on 9.0-CURRENT with firefox35 and libxul, without
mozilla and firefox2. At least on CURRENT the following entry in
/usr/ports/UPDATING helps:
20090917:
AFFECTS: users of www/epiphany, x11/yelp, graphics/librsvg2,
x11/toolkits/py-gnome-extras, and www/epiphany-extensions
AUTHOR: gn...@freebsd.org
The default Gecko provider has been changed from www/firefox to
www/libxul. Firefox 2.x is now forbidden for security reasons, and
libxul is the new, stable Gecko provider. Libxul uses the same Gecko
engine as Firefox 3.0.x.
Some ports may fail to upgrade or run when both www/firefox and libxul
are installed on the same system. To make sure everything runs smoothly,
uninstall www/firefox, then install libxul, then upgrade the affected
ports.

This has been hanging over our heads for a while now.
