No, I need to investigate more and ensure me that it has not been a 
passing error.

For example, the mentioned problem with pf, I first thougt it was a 
misconfiguration problem that fetch didn't use passive ftp, in which 
case this was the right forum.

Then by accident I discovered that reloading the ruleset solved the 
problem. Rebooting, I would have the problem again until a new reload of 
the ruleset.

I then tried at home to repeat on a different machine which had been 
updated almost at the same time but without luck. So, I there may be 
some error in updating or that very snap I got. In any case I need to 
investigate that more.

And the other error, I have now tried and found that it appears only in 
Eterm, not in xterm or on the console. It may have been introduced as 
the ports version is now 0.9.3_4.

Cheers, Erik
