Looks like a pilot error. Otherwise, re-file the bug against pkg(8) describ=
ing
in detail the kind of workflow you have in mind.

Partial package upgrades are fragile and aren't really supported. Before
installing new packages consider running "pkg upgrade".

libav is NOT supported by either multimedia@ or gecko@ teams. No port in the
tree depends on those by default.
vo-aacenc is also unmaintained and not enabled by default.

Probably 2017Q1 package set from /quarterly repo (default on releases).

The port builds a different package: firefox, not firefo-esr. Did you step =
on
the landmine of mixing /head ports and /quarterly packages? In such a case =
"pkg
upgrade" may not help unless you add -f (force) flag, see pkg-upgrade(8)
manpage.
