Hi, I'm still having problems after upgrading firefox last week. It wouldn't import my old .mozilla dir, so I tried mv'ing that dir someplace else and letting it start from scratch. When I say I want to "import nothing" it creates a .mozilla with the following in it (which is control characters, so it's hard to even express what the heck it is): % ls .mozilla | less <E8>^C'( <E8>^C'( <D7><BF> <E8>^C'(p<DA><BF> <E8>^C'(<90><D4><BF> <E8>^C'(<90><D6><BF> <E8>^C'(<D0><D9><BF> % ls .mozilla | xxd 0000000: e803 2728 0ae8 0327 2820 d7bf 0ae8 0327 ..'(...'( .....' 0000010: 2870 dabf 0ae8 0327 2890 d4bf 0ae8 0327 (p.....'(......' 0000020: 2890 d6bf 0ae8 0327 28d0 d9bf 0a (......'(....

As I mentioned in a previous email, portupgrade is broken on my system so I had to fish around for which ports needed to be upgraded by hand to get the firefox port to build successfully. Any thoughts on what I might be missing?
